Still excellent art, and some great reveals, and some great scenes, and some of the best character development in the series. This volume is heart-wrenching, and the writing is wonderful. ( ) Mothering Invention brings the series closer to its complicated endgame, explaining much of the series's backstory and incorporating a variety of plot twists. Quite frankly, Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie are often too clever for their own good. One issues, for example, is entirely made of up six-panel pages, where each panel is ninety years after the previous, showing Ananke killing some member of the Pantheon, from 3862 B.C. to 2014 A. D. Is anyone really reading this issue panel by panel? Seems doubtful. In another, there are ten pages of all-black nine-panel grids, showing how a character is dead for all ninety years between Pantheons! Okay, I guess they are playing with the conventions of what comics can do... but shouldn't it also be interesting to actually read? As always, my ability to invest in the plot is dampened by the fact that I feel like I ought to care about the characters more than I actually do. I've been noticing this series is like a roller coaster with my star ratings. One volume would be meh and the next wold be good again. This one was actually good. FINALLY, the story is starting to make sense. It's been a really slow story, but it's building up nicely...I hope. I think there are two more volumes and it's over. Next on is the collection of the one-shots that I'm happy is being made into one volume and I believe it's all ending at volume 9 or 10, I'm not sure. As much as I want to like this series because of its use of mythology and glorious artwork, the meandering storyline makes me want to call it quits. Too many of the characters have gone haywire (to little point it seems), and they're only now announcing some of the major behind the scenes players (and not in a particularly believable way). I can't buy into Minerva secretly being Ananke re-incarnated, because it just seems like a cheap backpedal from their decision to kill Ananke off. The whole point seemed to be discovering what would happent o the gods after their handler/murderer got taken out, but now it's all abut some apparent darkness coming to claim them all (cliche) and some offbeat scientific experiments by Minerva and the father masquerading as Odin. The only real redeeming quality in this series is the artwork for me at this point, and unfortunately that's not enough to keep me coming back. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
