Catching up on two trades worth of Deadly Class in single issues. I forgot how text heavy the series can be, but the slow burn always leads to some pulse-pounding action. Starting in on “Love Like Blood” immediately!
A great continuation of ultra violence, scheming, and teenage drama, the story now so much bigger than King’s Dominion with an inciting if expected merging of plots and wandering troupes.
Okay, now this series is where I've always wanted it to be.
This may be my favorite volume of the series yet. It's full of a lot of great moments. We get to see Saya's backstory. Then some more drama at school and some new relationships start before the freshmen collide with last year's class.
THIS IS THE SHIT. I WANT MORE.
Wow nice little pieces coming together. World: Fantastic art from Craig, other than the false Kanji it's amazing, I just artists would take more effort for languages other than English, they'd never half ass English signage but other languages...just google. The world building is good, a continuation of the cliffhanger of last time so there are new little bits and pieces created here. The best part of the world building is that it's character based and with new and old characters getting more de...
The deadly cast continues to twist and turn like a dagger eviscerating all and sundry in this sordid yet solid run.
‘’When I’m old and slow and boring and safe and living dead like all the things I swore I’d never become, I want to remember this. The way this feels.’’ I missed my babies Marcus and Maria so freaking bad.This was a really fun volume! Loved Saya's backstory and the final issue was oof, so good. Volume 4 remains my ultimate favourite but this one might be a close second.
More jockeying for power. A continued absence of teachers or learning or CLASSES in the misnamed "Deadly Class, Vol. 6". No end in sight.And yet for the second volume in a row, I'm fairly impressed with Rick Remender writing. I didn't think that was possible. When he focuses on teens trying to come to terms with a shitty, uncaring world and leaves off the endless, poorly written fight scenes, he doesn't suck.Plot points:(view spoiler)[--Saya's backstory, with a loving yakuza father and a jealous...
New class - new problems. I expected the quality will drop but the opposite happened. It's even better.
Bullet Review:Someone had a MASSIVE urge to rant against PC culture, racism, feminism and how MTV culture ruined metal music (and snort would destroy goth/punk music come the new millennium).I suppose this isn’t awful, but the discovery that *GASP* someone isn’t dead in a way that’s completely unbelievable makes my eyes roll around in my sockets. Does anyone really DIE in this series?Other bits: Grogda goes from porky in the previous volume to extremely svelte in the few days between these volum...

So this series is getting better and I think it's due to the new characters I was actually griping about in the last volume.
This was freaking fantastic. While volume 4 remains the highlight of the series this is damn good. So as you know by now Marcus is back. That didn't gel with me last volume because I LOVED his death so I didn't want him to return. However, reading him in this made me realize how much I missed him. I'm glad the series still shines the light on the new kids, giving them more romantic problems, and more growing pains, but we get enough about Marcus, Maria, and even the past of Saya in this volume.
So awesome. This is more of a character study and relationship study then pure action. Still has great action. The plot built as it went along. Now the wait for the next vol.
This is seriously one of the best comics I’ve come across.WHY AREN'T MORE PEOPLE READING THIS?!?!?The plot is consistently surprising, and the diverse cast of characters hold such a rich amount of depth... everyone is constantly changing in ways that feel organic, and characters I previously loathed (because, let’s face it, this is like the Game of Thrones version of teenage school for assassins— anyone can go at any time) are making me rethink my previous negative stances on them. Why must it a...
I just compared the number of reviews of the most recent volume of Saga with the most recent volume of Deadly Class (released a week apart), and to see that Deadly Class does not even have 1/15 the number of reviews is a legitimate shame. While tastes vary, I believe Deadly Class to be only a notch below Saga in terms of quality of art and writing (because let's face it, Saga is in a league of its own). Wes Craig's illustrations are like nothing I've ever seen. The way he can create seamless mov...
One thing's for sure... the cover is a spoiler. So I'm trying not to look at upcoming covers for the next volumes in the series. This volume was good but not as good as the pervious ones. I'd like a few more back stories on characters then what's been given. I still love the unique artwork and coloring and the story is still interesting. Looking forward to the next volume.
I am still loving this series, though I did find this volume to be more tame than the previous five volumes.But they were so excellent that I just went and slapped the five stars on this one.
I own this book. When I think about a good comic or a good book in general, I think about books that make me stop in shock. In the last book it's revealed that Maria isn't dead, and I'm not spoiling anything because she is literally on the cover. And then we also find out that Marcus isn't dead either and Saya lied. This book was so well done and I loved seeing Marcus and Maria find one another again. But things aren't all peachy in paradise. Each of them want revenge for what happened to them
