I’m really interested in the reactions to the black pages in issue #37. Personally it’s the arty farty mic drop move I live for. Those ten pages combined with the resulting grim punchline hit me straight in the gut. It was an even stronger reaction than the repetition in the last issue: “Holy crap, they’re actually doing this”.

And it’s worth repeating, those pages were free story, you got the same number of pages of gorgeous McKelvie artwork as any other issue.

But every reaction is valid. If you felt shortchanged in the moment, I get it. I’ll fight you, but I get it. And if anything, reading different opinions on storylines in WicDiv has really helped clarified my own thoughts on the strengths & weaknesses of the series.
