Okay. Peut-être que finalement c’est celui-ci le meilleur livre que j’ai lu en décembre parce que là WoW. Déjà je remercie YBY de m’avoir envoyé un sp numérique en échange d’une review. Mais la couverture est magnifique first et ensuite l’histoire est superbe. J’ai beaucoup aimé comment la santé mentale est abordée mais aussi comment les côtes vus comme négatifs ne le sont pas forcément. Bref un beau livre. Une belle plume. Et juste faut que je l’achète et que je l’offre à pleins de gens

It’s more depressing than scary but has scary part. Also, you can feel how much they love each others and that’s so freaking sad. I started it in a middle of a reading slump so it took me a long be time to finish it. Probably why it’s not a 5 stars

Not love at first sight but horny at first sight
You know what? Yes it is a real fast paced story but it’s cute, they are horny and flirt so much. Also lesbians on Christmas and with classiques clichés. I’m all in. It was what I needed tbh

I mean it’s good… and Bruce smile for one panel… but it’s the same. I haven’t read the og story because kind of hard to find it in France, but I’ve seen what happen. So idk. I wanted to see more of Jason (and Dick btw). Still good story and fun to see the 80’s art style and advertisements 
Still hoping for a next issue tho
