Quick retelling of the pied piper. I really liked Maggie's character. It was good.

The art was fantastic. Honestly it's what kept me engaged. I got more from the art than the dialogue and other words. There were numerous spots where I felt I skipped something or I forget something. The story was short and the characters were flat and underdeveloped.

Pretty art, but the pace was so fast I feel like I missed a ton of character development, details, and room for increasing the stakes.
Moderate: Animal death
Minor: Bullying and Death

The story was interesting and I loved that it is based on the vague historical mention of a common fairytale.
I found the story jumped a bit and didn’t have a clear way of showing that time was passing. I was also unconvinced by the relationship building.
