This graphic novel follows the TV series pretty closely, except it's from the POV of the bully. Nothing stand-out, but enjoyable if you're a fan of the TV Series.

Art is 10/10! My beautiful, amazing, talented friend is the illustrator of these comics. I love their work!❤️

While this story did provide some interesting insight on a character from season one of Stranger Things, it didn't expand much on the universe. Nor did Troy feel as if he went through much growth. Just when you feel as if some growth may be occurring the story ends and Troy leaves the narrative. Overall, a good stand alone tale as I certainly felt I learned a lot about the character's background and developed some understanding of his behavior in season one. But in regards to the whole of Stranger Things, it didn't add much to it for me.

Short and sweet story that takes place during season 2 and gives some closure to a couple of background characters you didn't really care all that much about up until this point.
Not rating it - I read it for fun extra Stranger Things content and I got that so job success.
(Really interesting light shed on Troy as a character beneath just being the asshole who pees himself in season one)

Seeing deeper into what Troy and James could’ve experienced with the whole season 1 incidents and seeing what season 2 could have included with their storyline. I love how the comic goes into Troy traumatic experience with getting his arm broken by eleven and how the effected his life at home and relationships with his parents. But I wish this went into more of James’s story, instead of heavily focusing of Troys.
