erine's review against another edition

The adventure continues some seven years later, and spends some time filling in gaps, but Sibylla doesn't seem to be aware of everything that has happened in the intervening time. It is revealed that her intervention in the Bull's battle caused her to be flung to a far place, and the Bull regained his human shape, but greatly diminished in memory and gumption.
There continues violent fighting between different factions of government, and eventually Sibylla and some of her new friends carry on with their adventures. There is clearly another installment due after this one.

It's been about a year since I read the first volume, so my memory of it is a bit fuzzy. However I did like the volume more than the first.
Art: Absolutely love the art here. The characters are quite expressive and some good movement and gesture. The colors are quite good too, it's not all just bright colors. The clothing designs are amazing too, I love Sibylla's get ups. As an amatuer comic artist I really enjoyed this volume because of the art. 5/5
Character: I liked the characters more here than in volume 1. Sibylla has grown more likeable, and I think is a better lead. We also get to see another side of Brom, which is interesting. I feel like the comic did a good job at fleshing out it's cast more. Harper and Dangy for example. They don't seem flat. 3.5/5
Story: Again I liked the story here better. There's some good world building thrown in, interesting plots, assisted by it's colorful characters. I think the story as a concept isn't much to write home about, but the other elements of the comic help it. Because at the end, I do want to see what happens to the cast next. And I'm quite fond of the world, the little we've seen of it. I think the story might be the weakest aspect, it's still good though. 3/5
All in all this comic series is definetly worth a read so far.

This is the sequel to "The Black Bull of Norroway".
It is not the conclusion.

An interesting volume. The time jump confused me for the first couple of pages - I wish that it had been explained a little better. Other than that, I really enjoyed this volume. I'm excited to see where the next one goes.

A lovely continuation of the tale, but I wish there was a bit more backstory given to the events and relationships present at the very start of this volume.
Still quite a delight to read. I hope the next volume isn't as long away as this was from the first, but hey, quality is quality right?
