Fade From Blue #5

Maybe it’s a bit self-indulgent to review the next issue so soon after I reviewed the rest of the series, but I finally found this and was dying to read it, so self-indulgence wins again! My complaint about the story developing slowly was reinforced in this issue, but I’m starting to think that that’s not a bad thing. The art is gorgeous, the writing just feels real and it’s a witty, funny book. As long as they keep putting out an issue every three months or so they could keep dragging the story along until issue #100 or so and I’d still be along for the ride. The issue deals with the continuing problems of basically all of the women. Iya is practically suicidal, Marit is fighting the legal system and Christa has, uh, STD issues to deal with. If and when a big book of this is published, buy it and be amazed. If it’s not, seek out the back issues, as they’re all in print and all cheap at $1.50. Contact info is above, seek them out!
