I NEED THE NEXT VOLUME NOW WHY ISN'T IT AVAILABLE YET
Seafarin' Karen is my patronus.
Can't quite give it 3 stars. This series has definitely lost it a initial charm from around volume 4.
I’m having a bit of trouble rating this one. In fact, it took me forever to finish it because I’m just not as invested in the adventures this time. It’s still good, and I love love love the Lumberjanes themselves... but for some reason, I could take or leave this issue. So that’s 3 1/2 stars for this one. Then again, (view spoiler)[ mermaids are totally awesome and I loved that this issue spent a bit of time under the water with the mermaids. (hide spoiler)]. But still, it just didn’t quite see...
This is the first issue in the series that I've given less than 4 stars, and I don't think it's any coincidence that it's the point in the series where Noelle Stevenson has stopped writing for the Lumberjanes books entirely and has handed it over to Shannon Watters. Without Noelle's fantastically unique art style or her precious and funny writing, this volume fell very short for me. I think I'll give volume 7 a try to see if it's just growing pains from the transition of authors, but if volume 7...
The happiest book out there? This is veering towards an astounding place in comic book history with its all female cast, zero male-female romances, multiple threats, alternate and confusing worlds, a compelling supporting cast, a trans character who's gender places zero part of the tale, a book focused on friendship, mystery and scout knots in this volume! Another easy 8 out of 12.Also I've learned more about 'forgotten' amazing women of history from the use of their names in exclamations by the...
This was a disappoint compared to the their lumberjane I read. Maybe because it had a different writer (Noelle) but this wasn't as funny to me. The story was just as original, and I love Mal and her lesbian relationship - but something just felt missing for me.
The Roanoke gang cannot get a badge without experiencing mayhem and danger while hanging out with fantastic beings. This time, it's Seafarin' Karen, a werewolf who's also a counsellor, and selkies, who have a grudge against Karen. April decides she wants to get the knot badge, and before you know it, half the gang is marooned in the sea with angry selkies, while the other half is trying to get info from Bear woman. The art is in a looser style than the original issues, and I'm pleased that Molly...
Yes!! I'm such a MalxMolly shipper! Another good volume, I loved the pirate ship (!!) and I'm really loving the different art style. I know a lot of people were meh since the style change but I think it's charming. Can't wait to get to volume 7.
Pirates, wormholes and lumberjanes go together like milk and cookies...
This issue was marginally better than Vol. 5's lackluster foray into the battle of the mermaid heavy metal bands though the action is once again taking place on the lake at Miss Qiunzella Thiskwin Penniquiqul Thistle Crumpet's Camp for Hardcore Lady Types.This time the Janes are attempting to earn their knot tying badges. New counselor Seafarin' Karen informs them that they need to earn the badges as a team and the girls are nonplussed to have their teamwork skills called into question. April on...
I’m really glad I came back to this series. I don’t think it is one you can binge because of the constant artisti changes but it’s okay, I loved the story and the characters and it was everything I wanted (:
I found the art to be lower quality in this entry- just like the last one. The story, of course, is still awesome.There's magic in this story and mystery, fantastical beings and Lumberjanes. The girls continue to earn badges and amaze with their brilliance and power.Highly recommended to reluctant readers and not-so-reluctant ones.
They kiss in this one! So cute.
I think this series is doing longer story arcs now and I'm really loving it! This would be 5 stars if it were Noelle Stevenson or Brooke Allen doing the art. I just don't love the recent artist changes as much.
Just okay. I don't care for the art style that took over starting in volume 5; too uniformly blocky and cartoony. It was always cartoony, but with a lot more variety between the characters previously, and the mysterious visual quality of the camp and environs is gone. Similarly, the writing has gone downhill. It feels as though they are trying too hard; the characters are too set and static, and the charm is gone. I hope future volumes turn back around. There was so much promise built up in the
The Lumberjanes are back at the water, this time to learn to tie knots with seafarin' Karin and prove they know team work. Selkies have stolen Karin's boat and she needs to get it back. The girls split up and Molly and Ripley go searching for Bear Woman. The other are going to help Karin get her boat back.The girls have so much energy. This series is all about the fun. I think this was a great volume. I'll be going forward with this. I want to know when the movie is coming out because this is a
I never thought I'd say it, but I may be breaking up with the Lumberjanes. The magic of the first few volumes has been missing in the last two and the cartoony art style of this arc adds to the feeling that the 'Janes are headed closer to the mainstream. I still think that Lumberjanes, as a whole, is an important comic for kids, but it was better when it wasn't so blatantly trying to be "for kids".
I don't know, I think I might stop reading this series? It's gone from manic and bubbly and full of cleverness and energy, to being just a mundane kids comic. I didn't laugh once, and I miss the original art. (Halfway through I realized Noelle Stevenson wasn't credited on anything but the cover, and I'm thinking that's a huge factor.)[2.5 stars]
