I don't read comics very often, so take my thoughts with a grain of salt.

The art style takes a while to get used to.
It's nice how the book sort of came with a full circle with Sarah.
By the end of it, it seems to have made clear that fantasy and dreams are not well mixed with reality. Not a book where you can say who your favorite characters are, but simply reading about what happens and flipping through the pages was unexciting while intriguing. Peace in the graveyard.

Read this for an assignment. Enjoyed this more than I thought and very quick to read.

Very well drawn and engagingly written. Some criticism of the work stems from the unlikable narrator or the fact that not a ton happens. Both of these are misguided in my view. It is an excellent work.
