I was not a fan of the large temporal jump between vol. 3 and 4. The characters lacked full development, and I wanted to experience the emotional transformation of the characters as the reality of their situation set in. I am excited, however, for the introduction of a new bad guy- even if Casey is one of the most obnoxious antagonists of all time.
Until this episode, I was enjoying the series, but it’s gone off the boil for me...
Sander is just so awesome <3
I am still enjoying this series, but I feel like it jumps around a bit. I know time passes between each volume, but not seeing the cause and effect of the situations makes the story seem disjointed a bit.Every volume feels like we’re getting a slice of life the characters have already acclimated to, so we never see them adjust. We see them potentially transformed, but rarely do we see the transformation.
A year has passed and the school has transitioned into a colony, looking to trade with New London. There's a big election coming up between Maria and Calder's brother to determine who will lead. Then a new threat arises, The Horde, a group of Japanese soldiers from World War II.This series continues to impress.
I only have one more of these free through Comixology, so I really really hope it doesn't leave me on a cliffhanger. That said, the forth volume was even better than the last! Action packed, surprising and the characters are just awesome.
One year later. After the climax of the last issue, we jump ahead and see how everybody fared in the year since. Somehow I had thought that the events in the last volume would lead up to a climax in this one here, but apparently I blinked and the climax has happened already... Anyway... I like how this story is developing and the artwork stepped up in quality as well.
This series still continues to be one of my favourites. I just love the characters and the weirdness of the story and the art work is wonderful, the colours always work so perfectly together. I wish I didn't have to wait so long in between each volume!
Bullet Review:Aaaaand let's skip a year later. Sure we'll find out what's happened in that year, in the most awkward, clunky, ham-fisted way. Meaning characters just suddenly changed and are hunters or governors or not in the school anymore.Yay.This is starting to feel like a clone of Robert Kirkman's "The Walking Dead". We have skipped time and the students are prepping, not for a town fair, but for a movie. Characters who were in relationships aren't; Maria is even becoming a modest Rick Grime...
Picking up a year after the bloody end of Vol 3, we find the Bay Point students quite changed by the alien world, and the actions they've taken to survive, as a new threat rises to destroy what little normalcy they have.
I still adore this series. The art is amazing, and the story is unique and weird and wonderful. Can't wait to see what's next in this series!
2.5I just didn’t enjoy this. There’s a time jump just not really explained and plot points that aren’t explained so I was just confused.
Time skip that suffers a little bit from the "another info dump and being very short". I am convinced that this series is good. But the paperback distribution per 4 issues is hurting it very badly.However, the art is stellar and drug scenes are great. It is a little bit action dry but I know that the next volume will be much juicier in this regard. The relationships are played and shown a little bit more. Some work and some are just too weird.
A time jump, a new danger, a new balance of powers.
As the second year of The Woods begins, we get a time skip of sorts, and the details of which trickle through the four issues contained within this trade. Boom! seem to like short trades, irritatingly.It's been a while since I read Volume 3, but the world of the Woods is easy to slot back into as we discover how all our favourite characters have changed in the past year and how far Bay Point has come. New threats rear their ugly heads, and old mysteries continue to elude us, and of course just w...
There seems to be a time jump from Vol. 3 to vol 4. I don’t remember the hunters in the woods coming back to the high school and where did the evil teachers get off to. I feel like I’m missing something here.We meet an evil nazi-like army that is the 2nd party in the woods. There is also some weird plant growing in the woods that is one hell of a mind trip. It can almost kill a person after one use. There is a lot happening in the story and I am still having a good time reading this story. There...
Title and cover game is certainly weak. But story does not disappoint.Lets get this straight, I am loving this series and I loved this book because what this series has been providing. Great artwork, wonderful suspense, and lovable characters that we all can follow and relate to. But this in the whole of a series seemed like a slump. Maybe slump isn't the best choice because the pace is no problem what so ever. I just felt like too much time had passed and I was wondering what I was missing.As a...
(3,4 of 5 for raising the antes)I like how the story slowly gets better, more serious and interesting. So if I would somehow exclude the first two books I would get even bit excited about The Woods. I'm starting to get used to the art (and it maybe gets better bit by bit), but I realized that I do not actually care about the characters. I maybe hate a few of them, but so far I feel like that aliens, quiet observer not burdened by concerns about involved creatures, just watching and waiting for t...
I'm worried about Isaac. I don't want anything bad to happen to my baby.
Wow, has this series taken a nosedive. The story jumps ahead one year and suddenly I lose all my interest in all the characters. Now the book is all about politics and military alliances with some drug abuse thrown in for kicks. I'm on the fence about whether I'll bother with the next volume.
