Sonjaversal #5

SONJAVERSAL #5 is a perfect example of doing a big event the right way. The main character's life is changed without changing the core of the character, leading to an infinite array of storytelling possibilities. Read Full Review

I'm curious to see where they're going to take Sonjaversal from here but it's certainly wide open based on what's presented in this book. Hastings had a good idea overall but early execution kept it from connecting for me and then the book became just so" so verbose as it went on that it kept it from reading well at times and just plain hard in some ways. Qualano's artwork made for some really striking sequences throughout and a lot of neat alternate designs for the various Sonja's out there so I'm hopeful that if there are a bunch of spinoffs that focus on them individually he'll get the time to do that on at least one or two of the creations here.

Really busy but satisfying end to the current arc. There were a couple of confusing panels for me but Hastings nailed the characterisation of each Sonja as usual. It's going to be interesting to see where they go from here.
