Nov 08, 2017No issue of Royal City is bad, any time we can get more of Jeff Lemire's depressing and human writing we are better off for it, when we can get past the tears. However, Royal City #7 doesn't quite meet the bar Lemire has set for himself in prior issues. Often times, this issue seems meandering and lost just like Tommy. Next issue, Lemire promises a drug and drink fueled joy ride with Richie, Tommy, and friends. Hopefully, we will arrive a more concrete plot location then. Read Full Review

Not much actually happens here, but this issue does a good job establishing a melancholy mood, coming from our knowledge of Tommy's destiny.
