What does /co/ think of Monstress?

>>88056126
The art is great. If you like worldbuilding and deepest lore then you should definitely read it, that is the best thing the story does. I think it works pretty well even if you don't care about that though, I like the comic overall.

Am I losing something if I buy the trade paperback? It has issues 1-6.

>>88057111
They run fanart and stuff in the floppies, I don't believe they have any supplemental lore stuff that isn't also in the trade though.

>>88057148
Thanks a lot

I am a huge fan of worldbuilding which is why i love this book so much.
>>88057111
The trade is well worth it. Love image prices

art is really good

Liu's writing, specially her dialogs, aren't that good. You can tell editors did their work back when she was at marvel, cause she HEAVILY missuses syntax at points.

It's the one comic book series on Earth that could ever be called "brutally feminist". And that is immeasurably high praise for a comic book to get.

Okay, maybe Bitch Planet too.

Yeah, I don't remember much about the actual characters from the first issue, but I still loved the atmosphere.

i wouldnt call it "feminist"

women rule that world but they make the exact same mistakes and fuckups men would. there is war, genocide, etc

It's virtue one lacks, for the wages of sin are a tax on the lax, lines end and begin with cruel acts that crack the skin-- who lacks vim enough to face facts? Though the crime lacks tact the sentence is in for the sentences one drafts: three years on the rack and thirty lashes on the back for the cacophonous din one lets win when one writes without an editor to take in the slack that, to our chagrin, results without syntax.

>>88057148
The trade is still quite the bargain at $10 when you consider issue 1 was 40+ pages

Huh. That's a first.
