One of the sharpest, most serious entries into the Stumptown series, King of Clubs is easily the best. We get a look at Dex’s past in the war, her PTSD and a less happy-go-lucky side of the Portland PI. After this installment, it’s no surprise that this got picked up into a TV series.

Great story. I like this artist better than the last two volumes.

It was ok. The artist changed. The story was ok. It just generally felt off. But hey I'm also not a soccer fan, not even for Timbers. I didn't like the buddy PI thing. The ending was okay. And I'll keep on reading.

This one had a more personal vibe to it overall, and with regards to the mystery, and I think it was a nice addition to the series.

I liked this continuation of the Stumptown series, but the artwork and setup of the story take a little getting used to.

I liked the first two volumes but this one nose dived for me. If it weren't for the world of characters already built it would unreadable.

I'm really enjoying these. I'm hoping we'll see some of these storylines in the tv show, because some of the dialogue would sound excellent out loud. Like, I can imagine it.
