Goodbye Villa Hermosa.
Ending of #21 was maybe a bit underwhelming, but it doesn't do anything against that great run, in my opinion. I really appreciate the characterization of Selina in these volumes and they will forever have a place in my heart.
Reading #22, I miss Joelle Jones already with all that male gaze in the art but in the words as well (makes it even worse that it's written by a woman, don't know abt the artist, Aneke, but poses are... a problem as well in that issue). Added malus: Selina mocking -even gently- what is basically sex work simply is bullshit. Laura Allred's colours do help a lot to maintain a link between this and what we've seen before, though, so kudos to her.

After Jole Jones fantastic run there just isn't much life in the stories Ram V is trying to tell. The one highlight was Fernando Blanco's remarkable art from the last three issues in this collection.
