Kieron Gillen

"In the nineties, six teenagers disappeared into a fantasy role-playing game. Only five returned. Nearly thirty years later, these broken adults are dragged back to discover the game isn't finished with them yet..."--

Die Volume 2: Split the Party

I'd have gladly paid for the essays in the end of the book alone. I'm reminded of why Kieron Gillen is still one of the very few auto-buy authors in contemporary literature for me.

Man, I really wanted to like this. I loved #1-5 but issues #6-10 are mostly uninteresting. Of course, the artwork is absolutely gorgeous and the world of DIE keeps getting more and more complex. I also found the part about the Brontë siblings really fascinating, it taught me a lot I didn't know about their fantasy role-playing "games".

But the overall plot feels convoluted.

This was just as good as the first one. I'm really liking how the story is developing and the art is still stunning imo
