Girl Genius Volume 7: Agatha Heterodyne and the Voice of the Castle by Phil Foglio, Kaja Foglio

5.0

REREAD 2019

It don't feel right to cut this down to 4/5 stars anymore.

This album is one of my favorites, despite of Zola - that girl can just stuff it. I can't stand her and the politics behind her - we're introduced to the castle and the Mechanicburg.

I also really like how the art style changes in this album. It's darker and grittier than earlier, and a lot more steampunky, which is never wrong. (Steampunk was how I found the series in the first place, after all.)

This album did remind me tat there are some story lines that aren't finished yet, though, despite the first arc being over. I wonder how many arcs are planed...
