Lumberjanes, Vol. 1 by N.D. Stevenson5/26/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() The story features five distinct characters, a lot to flesh out for a first volume. I like how the story showcased each and every character. It did a good job of setting up the right tone all throughout the story. The story’s quirkiness was controlled in a way not for it to become annoying. I believe that what makes the storytelling effective was how the flow of the story was handled. It has this right amount of wit and charm that I, as a reader, felt that it was not overly done. ![]() I like how everything becomes so natural. It didn’t have to push itself too far to be funny. Behind all these adventures is a much more bigger mystery that they are still to solve. This volume features how their physical and mental abilites and wits were tested against their adventures fighting three-eyed foxes, yetis and possessed boy scouts in the forest, a dragon-like serpent in the river and moving statues in an underground cave. The book follows the adventures of five girls living in one cabin, the Roanoke cabin, who always seems to find themselves in trouble. The first volume, Beware the Kitten Holy, which collects the first four issues, takes place at a summer camp in the middle of the woods – Miss Qiunzella Thiskwin Penniquiqul Thistle Crumpet’s Camp for Girls Hardcore Lady-Types. So onto the second graphic novel that I read this year! I read the first volume of Lumberjanes and I must say that this is a gem! □ ![]()
