Jim Henson's the Power of the Dark Crystal Vol. 2 by Simon Spurrier

2.0

Two thirds of the way through this series, and still not very much has happened. This volume becomes nearly slapstick in its constant progression of person holds crystal shard and runs away—person falls down—someone else picks up crystal shard and runs away, etc. etc. Instead of developing any of the big ideas, the story tells us quickly what the big ideas are, without building them naturally and really dealing with them.
