It's comic book LOST. Of course I love it.
Vol 3...I'm more intrigued and confused. There is a lot of time jumping. Meaning the plot jumps from each character's present and past to show the reader a build up of what is to come in the future volumes. We get to see more of the main characters abilities in this volume. The teachers are all still crazy. This volume had more meat to it. Lots of backstory. Can't wait to get my hands on Vol 4.
So many questions! Still loving this series though, can't wait to get my hands on the next volume.
Still confused as ever, still intrigued as ever. So we get a little bit of crazyness with the story. Back in time? Sure why the fuck now. We also get to see psycho crazy bitch actually kill more people. We get a flashback of asian delight. We get so many flashbacks, time traveling, and insane fucking plot points I honestly can't keep up. The language, dialog, over the top shit just makes this impossible to stop reading. Still not a huge fan of the art though. Always just find it _OKAY_ but nothi...
It took full three volumes, but I’m officially hooked on this Morning Glories series. P.E. was definitely a step in the right direction for me, in regards to character development, writing and plot, and just overall enjoyment of the series.The writing:I think it’s improved, but really pieces of the puzzle are coming together, and while there’s still this crazy mystery and disjointedness in the plot with having characters doing freaking everything, I felt like it worked this time around. Maybe I’...
How is it that I feel like I know both more and less about what the hell is going on in this series?
Capture the Flag for psychopaths!So these kids get sent off into the woods to...win something? Some game? I don't know, but they end up getting paired off and nutty things start to happen.Oh! And flashbacks! Lots and lots of flashbacks! Plus, there's some kind of time travel cave? I just don't even know what the fuck is up with that shit. I can't... What?And then the whole sit and stare at a wall till STUFF N THINGS happen? What the hell, Spencer?! I'm incredibly intrigued, but I hate you so muc...
Really really like this series as always and see in the brutal craziness combined with time travel and flash backs makes it crazy good. This is certainly a series with an awful lot to offer and it does so through beautiful (if brutal) artwork scenes, savage moments of fights and deaths, and the casual bullies and rivalries you'd expect from a school. All of that and more factor in to make this such an engaging one to read and one I'd highly recommend :) 4*s
This wasn't my favorite. The book had too much going on with very little explanation as to why it was all occurring and it left me confused. The ending was a cliffhanger and it left me confused which is usually an indication that the cliffhanger isn't that good. I was confused instead of curious. That being said I still love this series. The graphics are amazing and I don't know that I've come across a graphic novel whose artwork I have loved so much. I have the fourth and fifth volumes requeste...
I think this series might be going downhill as it goes on.The first volume is fantastic IMO.The second volume is good, not great.This one is just okay.On one hand, it’s a suspenseful story with good artwork and this volume includes some pretty good kills.On the other hand, I am tired of the angsty bullshit, I don’t give a fuck about any of these characters anymore except the ones who should be brutally killed off (view spoiler)[ (one of those characters was Zoe so I like the ending of this volum...
4/5 starsWhat??? This series just has so many cliffhangers! The 18th issue is probably one of my favourites so far, it was so cute at one point I literally cooed! It's nice seeing someone happy in a series that's mostly people being miserable. I'm slightly confused as to what's going on with Casey, but I'll probably read up on what happened if the confusion persists after reading the next volume. I'm really enjoying the development of the characters, and I'm looking forward to seeing more about
I definitely missed being back in this world with all the characters. The plot is beginning to make more sense and I think eventually we'll get insight to what's going to happen to the characters and why things are happening to them. The school is extremely weird and I haven't picked up on it's purpose yet but hopefully I'll figure that out soon. The artwork was great as usual and I'm looking forward to reading the next volume.
THIS OFFICIALLY BECAME MY NEW OBSESSION.
These 'Morning Glories' books are really running my patience to a raw nerve. While I appreciate plot twists, ending every issue and scene with a new question, or character, or absolutely random development is not, in my books, building a compelling story, it's sloppy writing. What we're supposed to be processing as a "complex" story is instead a writer out of control. I've been trying to connect the dots but it's disingenuous of a writer to keep adding a dozen or so new dots at each turn. Equall...
Introduction: After reading the first two volumes of Nick Spencer’s current comic book series “Morning Glories,” I was interested in seeing what kind of strange and nightmarish adventures our main protagonists are getting themselves into this time. Well, it turns out that there are even more twists and turns for the characters in this volume than ever before! What is this story about? In this volume, the faculty at Morning Glory Academy decided to cancel classes for the rest of the day jus
Curiouser and curiouser.With this third volume of Morning Glories (collecting issues #13-#19), all the kids at Morning Glory Academy are sent out to participate in some sort of outdoor snipe-hunt called "Woodrun." Of course everything at Morning Glory Academy is creepy and leads to fatalities, but the best part of this volume was Hunter (nerdy ginger-haired fanboy with a crush on Casey) being paired with Zoe (hot Indian material girl with a tongue like a whip).I am still liking this series a lot...
This is becoming too cyclical, it's starting to lose me. Unlike the series LOST, this doesn't have the grounding for half of the unbelievable things they're trying to achieve here. The Casey subplot? The murdering streak in Zoe? It has gone from impressive to improbable. Characters just keep popping in for cameo appearances a la Deus ex machina style.
This was the most interesting volume so far!
This is my favorite so far. I feel like things are starting to gel and the characters are pretty well developed at this stage. Looking forward to where this is going.
It's a comic were the reading experience is similar to that of watching a serialised TV show, and the show it reminds me of the most is LOST. Each issue will often flash forward and backwards, cutting between the 'now' scenes at the school and the characters past or future. It's never really specified which, but I think in most cases they're flashbacks. It's good, but sometimes it does get a little "so what the hell is actually going on? What does it all mean?".There was a line in LOST "the answ...
