Omg, I've been waiting to get my hands on this comic for ages, and I am SO GLAD I finally got to read it! It did not disappoint!!

I think this has the potential to be one of my favorites of the year, it's that good. That, and I fully plan to buy a copy of this for myself as quickly as possible so I can read its beautiful pages over and over again.
From the hilarious gestures and facial expressions down to the immaculate queer pining, this comic was a pure delight to read! I absolutely adore Eleanora Bruni's dynamic colors, Dominic Bustamante's smooth inks, and Deya Muniz's expressive style of comic is so hilarious. The work of these three paired together so well!
I also love the way Muniz finds a way to push the comedy in each and every panel possible. It really makes the characters feel alive! The story was really engaging and fun, too-- plenty of sweet moments paired with *ahem* cheesy (wiggles eyebrows at you) puns and a relatable story about doing the best we can with the circumstances given to us.
Definitely an absolute must-have for my comics collection, and I can't recommend this comic to you enough!
