I picked up the first two volumes of Moto Crush ages ago, read about half of the first one, and didn’t mark my spot. So I finally picked it back up (don’t worry, I restarted) and I’m in love. The characters, design, the fashion; it’s all incredible. So let’s get into it.
Fangirls, this is another lovely comic from the ever lovely Marty Day. At first I was a bit out off by the title; while I do enjoy some solid smut, a castle full of sex seems like a pretty big nope for me. But when I started reading and found out it was (almost) entirely a bloody as heck action comic, I got pumped, and read on.
Be aware: this is a mature comic and images that may not be for everyone follow the break. There is blood and violence, and even a bit of sex.
Fangirls, I bought this first trade paperback because I had seen the cover a couple times and was in love with how angry the main character looked, atop her half dead mushroom. I am so glad that I did. This is the perfect balance of un-fluffing-believeable cuteness and pure hell.
Greetings, Fangirls!

If there is one word to summarize this story so far, it is ‘epic’. Of all the comics I am currently reading, this one is my favorite, and has been since I picked it up in March 2013. I stumbled across this at my LCS and from the moment I finished the first issue, all I wanted was more.
Fangirls, I’m going to be honest with you. There is a lot going on in Shutter, and even though there are things I really don’t understand (walking, talking, advice offering cat clock?), I love it. Set in a future with animal-like creatures who interact with humans daily, about a woman who thinks she knows her family far better than she does, Shutter is bizarre and beautiful. It’s a combination of a couple things, all done wonderfully.
Every time I finish an issue I think to myself, well the shit can’t get any deeper than that, and you know what Fangirls? Every time I’m wrong.
