This book is basically all filler. I thought I might like that since I do like the characters, and I don't care about the story, but alas this volume didn't do anything for me either. I might return if Maps and Olive ever start dating, but until then I'm going to find the Lumberjanes/Gotham Academy ...
And now I am going back to comics. I am really having a lot of fun reading comics lately. I didn't read many last year so getting back into comics this year has been a real treat. I heard about Descender on BookTube. I heard it was a pretty good sci-fi novel so I thought I'd give it a try. And I'm s...
This third volume is mainly full of flashbacks tracking Andy's, Tim's, Effie's, Tesla's and Driller's backgrounds and origins and leading in each case up to “present-day” events as robots and scrappers clash. This volume does not have a lot of progress in the general plot but deals with these indivi...
This format is better suited to a long running series than the 3rd collected volume of a series in which the first two volumes were hard to follow and had plots predicated on the reader and the protagonist being confused and not privy to major secrets/plot points. I wasn't sufficiently attached to t...

Descender, Vol. 1: Tin Stars has some exceptional artwork and the story is very engaging. I recently watched the series, "Westworld", sparking my interest in stories with androids. This series by the talented Jeff Lemire certainly doesn't disappoint. The main character is the cutest bot ever! Illus...
It's got a misunderstanding, the tension between Superman and General Lane, and Superman and Wraith coming together despite Lane's attempts to keep them at each other's throats. It's fun, and I wasn't sure what to expect. I've both loved and hated some of the new 52: Batman, especially towards t...
Ten years after gigantic planet-sized robots destroyed most of galactic civilization, a child companion robot awakens on an abandoned mining colony. The codex that runs the little bot is the same as the one that ran the gigantic bots. For this reason all the powers in the galaxy will use any force n...
Another volume of excellent Batman mysteries. Loved the artwork and the storyline is snappy and active, but also emotive. I think Dini's Batman volumes tend to be my favorite.
After giant robots wipe out billions on a faraway planet, a backlash against all robots ensues. This collection deals with the discovery of the origin of the giant robots through Tim21, a boy robot companion and his inventor, Dr Quon, with dire consequences for all concerned as other parties get inv...
