Lee is traveling with the Bayou; a sort of swamp giant, looking for Brer Rabbit who may be able to help find her missing friend. But Stagolee, a ruthless killer, is hunting her.

This volume show more of the way the real world and the fantasy world Lee is in parallel each other. I found this follow up much better than the first one but unfortunately, there is no next installment. From what I could fine, there’s no volume 3 or anything about this series other than more people asking the same questions I am. I like this graphic novel but I hesitate to recommend it, especially if unfinished work bothers you. If you’re ok with that, I’d check this one out. It’s really good. 4 out of 5.

In Mississippi in 1933, Lee Wagstaff’s white friend goes missing and her father is accused of kidnapping her. Lee goes in a surreal journey to find her friend and prove her father’s innocence.

This is an interesting concept; like Alice in Wonderland but with higher stakes, much more danger, and a lot more racism. the art style merges the real and fantastical really well and the characters are unique and I enjoyed following them. Lee’s adventures are fantastical and I do look forward to what happens next. 3.9 out of 5.

*This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.

Post apocalypse, humans created a race of super humans and called them The Peace Corps Commanders. One has gone rogue and needs to be hunted down.

Reading this is like trying to remember parts of different dreams you had the night before. I kept turning the pages thinking “I’m sure this will all come together and make sense soon” but I read this twice and all I can tell you is that there’s things that happened. I like the art butI don’t get it. I like to think I’m smart and can interpret well but this is just madness. 3 out of 5.
