Loved it

I really I like how dark the series is. Like I wouldn't call it horror, but it's definitely darker than a lot of the series on this list, which are quite cutesy and upbeat.

FablesBill Willingham
Loved it

it's one that I really enjoyed reading the first time around, and have since started a reread of it, and I'm realizing that I enjoy it just as much in a reread, if not more

Loved it

It can be quite like heart-wrenching in moments. I would say it has a lot of like sadness and like grief-orientated plot lines in it, but it's also very beautiful and bolstered by the beauty of found family and friendship and love.

Loved it

It's just perfect. Like, I just cannot recommend this series more highly, particularly to those who don't necessarily gravitate towards contemporary series like me.

Loved it

I really enjoyed it because it's also kind of a story of abuse about domestic abuse about manipulative and toxic relationships but in this like superhero world. So I thought this was really fantastic

Locke & KeyJoe Hill
Loved it

It is a perfectly balanced six-volume series. Like, it is so well structured. It feels so well thought through.

I found this such a heartfelt story, which I thought was very much a queer story. Like this book is about queer love, about queer trauma, about the experiences of coming out and being rejected, and finding love and support and community.
