It’s more Dresden at least!
It wasn’t great, but we get a lot more of Molly in her apprentice level, which I feel was somewhat skipped over in the novels.

The worldbuilding continues to expand. We’re getting some really interesting thoughts on what exactly the difference is between bodies and souls… and what it means to separate them. Also more on how homunculi work and how to finally kill them.
Oy these are crazy.
Well. I listened to it. It had something to do with a big conspiracy to control rare earth metals and a lost submarine. … That’s really about all that stuck in my head.
It’s got a lot of solid crazy action: in particular there’s a battle in the Panama Canal, which is pretty awesome. But I’m really getting burnt out on this series. But I’m so close to finishing it… I think I’ll still go for it, but I’m looking forward to it less than I had.
War Cry! The second new Dresden comic!
It almost feels like a bottle episode in that it’s very limited in scope, but the action and explosions certainly would have cost a fair penny. There’s something underhanded going on, an attack by hundreds of red court vampires, and Dresden coming into his role as a mentor warden. It’s pretty good.
The children are off at a cabin in the woods and suddenly SQUIRRELS! IN THE CEILING! Oh, and they also get snowed in by a freak storm that dumps four feet of snow on them. But from the way they go on, the squirrels are totally the problem…
In any case, the first 80% or so of the book is pretty good. It’s nice to see the kids mostly out on their own and the setting is fun. The mystery is… pretty terrible. The secret ingredient in family buns? Really? (And we, the read, never find out!)
Man this story is getting crazy. Both in the worldbuild aspects (we keep learning more about how souls/homunculi/chimeras work) and in a more ’traditional’ sort: death and PTSD. It’s so well written and drawn. I’m quite enjoying this.
Chapter 34: The Footsteps of a War Comrade
Welcome to the Jungle was new, but an introduction. Storm Front (Graphic Novel) and Fool Moon (Graphic Novel) are adaptations of previous works I’ve read a number of times. But Ghoul Goblin? NEW CONTENT!
It’s interesting seeing introductions over and over again. I know the books do the same, but for some reason it feels different in a comic. Perhaps because I’m reading them relatively quickly?
Fool Moon, but as a comic book/graphic novel!
It’s one of two novel adaptations (Storm Front being the other) and I think the weaker of the two. Still a lot of fun though.
We’re learning so many more things about the world! And it’s getting bigger and crazier and more wonderful all the time.
30: The Truth Inside the Armor
A mystery on a houseboat? Sure! That actually sounds like a really fun vacation.
Grandfather’s still just throwing his money around (what does he even do for work anyways?) and the kids are impressively meddlesome. But you know what? It works.
