Rating: 3.5/5I liked the main Valentine’s Day and Halloween stories and a few of the short stories, but some others just didn’t do it for me. I guess that sums up every anthology. Overall, this was pretty cute.

I thought these specials were pretty cute. I mean the stories obviously weren't as good as the first two volumes but like?? It was cute and that's honestly my favorite part about these comics.
Some fun Valentine’s Day and Halloween short stories
i wish it continued the story, but the holiday specials were so cute i don't care
This is a collection of unrelated shorts and little scenes about our cast and their Valentine's Day and Halloween adventures. As such, there's not much substance and it doesn't really further the story, but it's still fun and there's plenty of cute fluff.
Volume 1 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Volume 2 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Volume 3 ⭐⭐⭐💫This is more of a 3.5 star read for me, but I'm rounding up because I enjoyed the overall series so much. This volume is a collection of holiday-themed one-offs, and a couple were really good and felt like the overall series did as far as vibes and all go, but a few of them just missed the mark in a big way for me. I typically don't enjoy graphic novel collections where there are guest writers, because I get very used to those characters being portrayed b...
This was really disjointed. And not just because it's a collection of unrelated shorts. Many of the stories didn't even make sense internally. They were just a bunch of really short, mostly dumb, vignettes set at Valentine's Day and Halloween. If you hadn't already read the first two volumes you'd get very little sense of the kids' personalities other than "Glasses kid has emotional problems" and "short blond one who looks five seems to be retarded." (I don't think Sasha is meant to be actually
Assorted shorts from two holiday specials and a summer sampler. Only the first tale rises beyond a one-joke story and buying the individual issues is cheaper. Very disappointing.
I know it's a collection of shorts, and I know it's been forever since I read the last ones, but this was overly disjointed and not very well grounded.
Loved how this book showed Valentines Day and Halloween. This graphic novel series is perfect for the spooky season. I also loved in the back how we got to see different storylines about the characters.
I absolutely love this graphic novel series! This one has your feels for the holidays like Valentine’s Day and Halloween 🎃
There isn't much substance in these Valentine's day and Halloween specials. They are sugary sweet and not much else. The backup stories aren't even that.
Collecting some Halloween and Valentine's Day stories, these little Backstager vignettes are fun and easy, like the rest of the series.The meat of the volume are the two lead stories by the usual Backstagers creators, James Tynion IV and Rian Singh; these seem to have the most relevance to the characters and the biggest moral lesson to learn as a result of them, which is to be expected.Meanwhile there are a collection of about six short stories that range from adorable to just kind of pointless,...
A quick, holiday-themed dip back into the world of the Backstagers. The character's are all chatty and fun and refreshingly upbeat. The art is less cartoony than I recall previous volumes being. The main holiday issues are filled with laughs and smiles. The back-up shorts are...a mixed bag. Overall, a pleasant diversion.
The Backstagers is such a cute series. What it lacks in substance, it makes up for with incredible art and pure sugar sweetness. It is also the perfect time of year to read the Halloween stories.
2.5all in all, it was cute, but nothing morei enjoyed two stories, one more than the other, but again... nothing special but i recommend to read the series anyway
I loved the idea of this encore volume of The Backstagers, but it has to be my least favorite of the three. The idea of all these precious holiday themed issues were really cute, but I found I had to see them as more like short stories and not a connected series. At some times it felt disjointed without clear lines. I did enjoy the characters and to see them again, but it was certainly my least favorite.
3.5. Cute little vignettes for fans of the other two books.
Despite the exuberance of the characters, I'm not sure if it was enough to hold some of the fluff content this collection pushed for. Although the main series ended last volume, this final Encore of The Backstagers essentially contains one-off specials and corresponding shorts based on Valentine's Day and Halloween. Like I mentioned before, there was little substance, but these adventures were still fun and buoyant (although the shorts with their guest artists didn't leave me with as much enthus...
