“Gets the DNF from olâ Pete because each issue ends with a long section from our heroâs journal, and in this journal we learn almost nothing but what weâve just witnessed, however we do get the occasional super important detail. Which means you must read these sections, even though they donât add depth to the sections they follow.
This conceit could work, I could definitely see a cold character who is more expressive in a journal, and seeing how they conduct in public and emote in private could add a lot. But in this case, I got most of the details already in the comic, so the text ends up being a retread.
My patience for blocks of text in comics runs low these days, but this might be the most tedious version Iâve come across. “
