Review: The God Dilemma by Ryan Ferrier

Title: The God Dilemma
Author: Ryan Ferrier
Artist(s): Priscilla Petraites, Marco Lesko, Moritat, Casey Silver
Series/Standalone: Rat Queens (Vol. 8)
Genre: Graphic Novel, Fantasy, Adult
Pages: 136
Publisher: Image Comics
Year Published: 2021
Format: Paperback (Library Copy)

"While Hannah ventures down a dangerous path of black magic, peace in Palisade is interrupted when a monstrous titan pulls the Rat Queens into action one last time!"

My Rating: 1.5/5

I had a lot of hope after the last one and this ending just wasn't it for me. It felt rushed and like the ending was thrown together for no reason. I'm not sure what the point of reviving the characters was when they once again changed the art style, and the way the characters reacted to situations. Overall this series had too many changes in it throughout and I wouldn't recommend, it because you'll be like me hooked from the first one and disappointed as the authors make rapid changes to the plot, art and characters.

Thanks for reading,

Review: The Once and Future King by Ryan Ferrier

Title: The Once and Future King
Author: Ryan Ferrier
Artist(s): Priscilla Petraites and Marco Lasko
Series/Standalone: Rat Queens Series (Vol. 7)
Genre: Fantasy, Adult, Graphic Novel
Pages: 136
Publisher: Image Comics
Year Published: 2020
Format: Paperback (Library Copy)

" A vengeful presence from the past forces the Rat Queens to face their own demons inorder to save everything they've ever loved. Can the Queens hold their own legacy together when faced with their greatest challenge yet? A whole new era for the Rat Queens begins here, chronicled by a brand new creative team!"

My Rating: 4/5

Considering my thoughts on the other books in the second half of the series this one was surprising to me. It touched on things that had happened in the past while branching ahead to a new world. It brought back the original sense of humour and fun that the first 3 volumes offered to readers. If this were to continue this way I would be interested in continuing the series. I don't think it will ever be as good as the first few volumes, but this will satisfy my need for a fun fantasy graphic novel series for the time being.

Thanks for reading,
