I gotta say that I have a love and hate relationship with this comic book series. Because a part of me likes reading those comic book while the other hates it because of how simple it is. But without making the intro longer than it needs to be, lets get into the review.

This comic book tries to build on the excitement and interested of the previous comic book in this series. But in my opinion the this comic book doesn’t improve the series at all. Yes this comic book is better than the previous comic books in this series, but it still isn’t good enough for me to truly like this comic book or the whole series in general.

The storyline in this comic book feels underdeveloped. At the same time it lacks the depth needed to truly make me engaged with the story. 

When it comes to the plot in this comic book, I need admit that it is predictable. But also the plot fails in a way to introduce any intriguing twists or memorable moments which would make me interested in the book long enough to give it a good rating.

The narrative in this book is very uninteresting, it does have some good moments here and there. But these moments are very rare, and they don’t happen a lot. 

The characters in this book are very one dimensional and they lack personality. The characters feel like they are just there to help the plot be told rather than make the plot move forward with the characters. Which of course means that it is hard to connect with the character or actually care about their journeys in this comic book or in the entire series in general.

The character development is almost none-existing in this book, because throughout the whole comic books and the whole series in general all of the characters remain exactly the same.

The pacing in this comic is pretty inconsistent. Because there are parts of this comic book which drags for too long making the entire comic book boring and uninteresting, while other parts of this comic book feel very rushed and doesn’t give us any details but rather a skeleton of the plot. 

Because of the inconsistent pacing throughout this comic book, it is very hard to actually stay invested in the story for longer than a page or 2. Because of how often the pacing changed in this comic book.

The writing style in this comic book is pretty simplistic which of course would appeal to younger readers which this comic book (and the whole series) is meant for. 

The descriptions and dialogues in this comic book get very repetitive and monotone. Both the descriptions and dialogues felt like it was one step away from feeling like it was written by ChatGPT, because of who almost unrealistic both the descriptions and dialogues were in this comic book. 

I think that younger readers between 5 and 9 would love this comic book, but the moment some older than 9 readers this book, they would be pretty unsatisfied with this comic book. And I am of course one of those people who are unsatisfied.

The artwork in this comic book, was very simplistic and it avoids details like the plague. Which really is never a good to say about a comic book. 

One of the biggest things this comic book struggles with is that it feels to grab the attention of readers older than 9 years of age. Which is really a not a good thing, because this comic book is only available on kindle, and I don’t know not even one 9 year old who has their own kindle. 

I Give This Book 2 / 5
