pickThe only way to escape the world of Die is if the whole team wishes to go home. Just one problem: half of them want to stay in this trauma-inflected fantasy. Gillen's pacing is excellent, as always. Each issue has both substance and suspense.
pickThis nominee for the 2022 Hugo Best Graphic Story award is the 4th and final volume of the Die series. The story, which plays with RPG concepts, is not easy to follow. However, this final volume explains a number of things that had me mystified in the earlier books and provides a satisfactory conclusion.

Happy new #comics day everyone. Indie titles this week:
Curse Words continues being awesome!
Ogre is 3 issues long...this is the middle.
Ninjak - final issue. Bye bye Ninjas. 😭
Die is about a D&D group that find themselves battling in REAL LIFE. 😱
Wizard Beach # 1 - no idea. But it's a Wizard...on a beach! 🤷♂️😅
Sword Daughter = Vikings.
William The Last - little boy discovering his destiny.
Larks Killer = bonkers fun.

😞 this makes me sad but I'm super glad there is an entire chapter about bisexuality in this book. Bi and pan ppl are usually just ignored. #bi #or #die #queerbooks #anyotheroutbisexualsonlitsy? #hi
Wenn die Bücher per Post kommen und dann noch reduziert waren, kommen sie meist direkt in größerer Zahl.
Von allem etwas, was heiteres, dann eine Biographie und endlich #die Clique.
Und einen Klassiker wie #1984, da ich zuletzt Band 1 und 2 von #1Q84 gelesen habe und auch auf dieses Buch verwiesen wurde. 📚🔖
pickMore #80s #TeenHorror. #PromDress by #LaelLittke was a book I read when I was around 11 years old. The #cover always stuck in my #memory. "It's a #dress to #die for..." #ChaiVanillaTea #bookstagram #80sKid #retro #booklove #bookhoarder #eveningreading #comfychair
