A review by thefantasticalworldofsara
Slam! Vol. 1, Volume 1 by Pamela Ribon

3.0

I really wanted to fall in love with this (the cover looked cool as heck and come on, it’s about roller derby, a hella sweet sport) but sadly I didn’t :(

The art was awesome, the depiction of roller derby was super cool, but everything else was just okay. The characters didn’t really develop that much over the course of the issues/chapters and I found the relationship between Maisie and Jen gave me whiplash with how fast the dynamics changed back and forth. It started off super promising (and it definitely kept me turning the pages) but sadly it didn’t deliver. Might read the next volume to see if it develops more but not in a hurry to delve back into this world again.
