New bonds are forming between crewmates as they heal from the loss of Sunshine. But is Sunshine really lost?

Signal increase in mushy love storylines. Yes, the characters are still amazing but this volume veered from the action-packed pirate crew conquering the seas into a plot worthy of a telenovela! I truly hope the story returns its emphasis to the search for Raven’s brothers and her quest to regain her rightful inheritance. It is possible to have a bit of romance sprinkled among the action – but this volume wasn’t sprinkled … it was drowning in it.

Our first story with Sunshine on the strange island of beautiful women. Very strange storyline but somehow very compelling still.

Recommended for: Anyone who has any taste whatsoever.

I will start with the art by Christine Hipp and Xenia Pamfil in this volume is really great and I feel like it kind of props up a volume with a it of poor drama. I love how gay everything is and the characters but there is a lot of moments that I feel like existed to say something but failed to say things as well because they are using an all female cast to tell these things. The conflict on the island is all about not wanting to be owned by this lady in her amazing lesbian paradise that in particularly in this world is freaking amazing just has me going like, IDK I've seen the world of Princless this for sure seems 10000% like the best place to live. I get that she wants to be back with her friends but like OK.

On the Raven side the drama for this romance this issue really felt just like random BS and there is this one rebuttal to Raven from Ximena that felt like it was a rant to an unrelated topic, like stuff Raven didn't even really say and that really hardly felt in character for either of them just so that they could be mad.

The increased amount of lesbians was very good. I did enjoy that a whole lot.


I'd like to add a side note here, the presentation of a book matters and the way Action Labs did it's trade here I think was really poorly done. You get a credits page between every issue, there is no covers from the issues here despite this. There is extra's between issues to show how things got made but really these might have been better all int he back instead of breaking up the story. Action Labs at least didn't include ads here which they have done before but gosh.

I love this series so much and I’m so enjoying the every day life of the pirates but I wasn’t the biggest fan of Sunshine’s narrative in this one. That being said, I’m still trash for this series and never want it to end.

The only draw back about this book was Sunshine's storyline in the underwater prison. It made the rest of the story feel disjointed. And brought a lot of questions as to how the Queen/cult leader got a hold of it. My favorite part by far was Quinn & Zoe's romance. I need more of them in my life forever. PRAISE BLESS THAT XIMENA & RAVEN FINALLY KISSED, I CAN SLEEP HAPPY TONIGHT.

This has become my favorite comic series. The witty dialogue, the feminist tone and the romance makes me swoon every volume. Love it!

I love the pairing off of all the characters. And watching Raven and Ximena fight was the best part, especially the line "It's not my practice boob, Raven!"... which I'm just going to leave at that, you'll have to read it yourself to see why that line might be used.

There's just so much girl power here. It used to be that Princeless was my favorite, and that this spin-off was a close second, but I think Raven has totally taken over.
