It goes without saying, we're eight-teen trades into this series, so I'm going to spoil some stuff in this little mini-review - and if it's this far in you don't need my recommend to buy it :)
So hear we are in the post-Glen world, and our heroes are devastated. I need to go back and remind myself what happened to Maggie 'cause I swear she's not here, but I also don't remember something happening to her last time...
We're deep into the Negan storyline, and Kirkman has done a good job so far of showing why he's different from the Governor - first of all - he's pretty damn charismatic. He's the kind of villain that's really enjoyable to spend time with because he seems to have a code, fucked up as it is, and seems to be, as he states, "a reasonable fucking guy". He's also created a trade network - or more like a stealing network - which is what you'd have to do in a situation like this. I'd like to think this will go down differently than it did with our last big bad of the series. It almost has to. This book was a bit of a calm before the storm - and through Carl we got a good glimpse into the world of Negan and how that all works. And we got to meet King Ezekial - which is all kinds of bizarre and awesome. And now it's a long-ass wait until the next trade comes out, and the series is back. Alas...
