Content: (please note that content portions of a review may contain spoilers):
Reconnecting with this property in the previous installment was welcome as I’ve really enjoyed Beasts of Burden from Evan Dorkin, Sarah Dyer, and Benjamin Dewey over the last few years. There’s just something about the property that in a way separates it from comics for me where it’s more that it’s a series of fables told to children that are really well-detailed because the adults behind it wanted it to delight those who were reading it to their kids as well. It’s not a book that you can skim through as it’s very detailed in both writing and artwork so that you linger on the details and follow every word that’s critical to explaining what’s going on.
