Lev Grossman, The Bright Sword. Viking. 2024. The round table after the death of Arthur. I’ve always been a fan of King Arthur stories. Feels like the Once and Future King is required reading for this. but I’ve read that and loved this.

• Lev Grossman, The Bright Sword. Viking. 2024. [5] The round table after the death of Arthur. I’ve always been a fan of King Arthur stories. Feels like the Once and Future King is required reading for this. but I’ve read that and loved this.
• Becky Cloonan and Tula Lotay, Somna. DSTLRY, 2024.[4]. Very good entry into the “Witch Persecution”. Lovely lovely drawing. ok story.
• Tara Booth, How to be Alive. Retrofit Comics/Big Planet Comics, 2017.[3]. Short little comic with some wonderful pianted sequential art. mostly one page vibes.
• Alec Robbins, THE COLLECTED CRIMEHOT: VOLUME 1. Silver Sprocket, 2024. [2]. Cool indy comic – mostly silly capers and lots of even sillier sex. Really fun, actually.
• Kawashima Norizaku. Her Frakenstein. Living the Line, 2024. [1]. Odd horror manga. Everyone loses in this.
