If you, like me, are really into the lore of the actual play show Critical Role, this is the comic for you! It reveals a lot about the Bright Queen and the current state of affairs in both her personal and political life.
If you don't know what Critical Role is, this is not the comic for you. Not that I'm going to stop you from picking it up if you're curious. Just be prepared for an utter lack of context if you do.

This is a really compelling concept, but unfortunately, it is a bit confusing (or at least was for me, especially at the start). I have a very minimal knowledge of Critical Role’s second campaign, and I do think more knowledge would have helped, but wasn’t mandatory. You can still find this dark and conceptual story of star-crossed lovers compelling without the context of Critical Role. I love the concept, but the execution still felt a bit confusing and cluttered to me, so my rating is a bit lower, as it took me a while to really get into the story, and just let myself enjoy it (as opposed to trying to figure out what was happening).
