Outstanding

Chiming in with everyone else-- absolutely this is THE BB of the year!! The presentation on this is phenomenal, everything is so neatly compacted! To the slick emblem thumbnails, to the index and closeout, everything was spectacularly organized and treated with so much love. So many people that worked on this should be proud of themselves, and the organizers especially!! I'm not very good with comments but I did write down some notes on what stood out to me. If I didn't mention someone, or didnt cover specific pages, please don't take offense! --- JellyRapotor immediately blasted me back to Danger Days and the iconic radio morning announcements. Dialogue was slick as a host should be, and the visuals were so a feast for the eyes! For a big collab, I can only imagine the pressure of being the one to hook in the reader and you delivered and then some! The stage being set by offering visuals, recaps and explanations for the lore of the land, this intro was incredible!! Then jumping into Nagore and Vid, their development has been the sweetest thing!! Organically done, their connection even before seeing them so close made clear, I was on the edge of my seat seeing where they would lead. I've adored their chemistry from the start; from the ugly sides to the good they afford each other so much development and insight to one another's personalities. It's the best kind of relationship to witness blossom. The writing is also something I haven't seen at all for either author/artist so this just shows how versatile Pyras and Petri have become. It's easy to get too excited about a ship and rush something, but they were so patient and played the long game. THE PAYOFF WAS SO WORTH IT, LESBIANS WIN AGAIN For the Valkyries-- First off, GOTTDAMN??? GOLDIE HOW DARE YOU DRESS UP CRIKEY THAT WAY. I KEPT HAVING TO REREAD DIALOGUE I KEPT GETTING SO DAMN DISTRACTED!! To boot- seeing Crikey in her element was refreshing, domesticity suiting her after everything she's been through. Swan doubly so, all the valks being near their closest friends and keeping each other safe being the sweetest sight to see. Aside from that, Goldie I'm so impressed with your expressions this go around!! Absolutely keep practicing on dramatizing expressions to their limit, it adds so much life to your art! And the backgrounds came out so phenomenal, the colors, i've said it before but you two working together is so cohesive and wonderful to see! Seeing Clever in action is always a good time, but what I didn't expect was this much of a treat!! I'm gonna shake you more about it later, but Juxt your subtle storytelling will NEVER cease to blow me away bro I WAS HOOKED!! The nods and hints of interconnecting storylines between ur chars, the more indepth look into whats behind the curtain Clever's keeping closed, all of its tickling the right notes on what the reader should be asking themselves about him. Plus-- you shining more on that deceitfully cheerful nature that hide that cold side to him, I EAT THAT SHIT UP YEARRGHH!! All and all, even if I didn't outright comment on someones entry, I still enjoyed the collab in it's entirety. So many knocked it outta the damn park with this one, and I cant wait to see whats next for Voidlands

So much hard work went into these! Been really enjoying reading the voidlands comics! Excited for a third!

I think this will win Best Bb of the year. Beautiful storytelling, beautiful visuals.

This, this is awesome I'm all in. It is super cool and I cant wait to see ware these story's go!

This is the gift that keeps on giving! I enjoy these anthologies like you have no idea guys. Every story here got me hooked, from the romance to the comedy and from the action to the awesome artwork. Great job everyone!

I've been trying to come up with a meaningful comment, and I don't think I have the proper words still, but I'll do my best lmao! This collaboration was absolutely incredible! Most pages looked like I could find them printed in a comic book store! Seeing how the characters are growing and dealing with the Voidlands is really fantastic, specially with how differently they deal with it. There's so much to talk about with this! The way Keito delivered exposition regarding the Voidlands was very refreshing, it says so much about Keito himself as well as the land this comic takes place in. The background, too! So many little details that says a lot about him, and what he's into. Gorgeous rendering and colors, too! The tone change at the end of the segment was superb Vidia and Nagore's budding romance which was so heartfelt and sweet! Not to mention, that whole segment looked absolutely profesisonal- form the action, the art, the setting, the lettering. Super impressive work! The dialogue between them, seeing more of Vidia's inner turmoil, Nagore being so sweet and supportive of someone who she fought in the past says a lot about her character too. Can't wait to see what more happens where those two! I'm a huge VCV fan so seeing them in this got me super excited!! The art is absolutely gorgeous, the setting- the tower design? Fabulous!! Not to mention, the outfits the girls are wearing are amazing, they look stunning!! It's very sweet how Swan and Crikey are catching up- and even though the other Valkyries are not there, they still have a strong presence in this. Absolutely lovely!! Kurdis' antics are as surreal as ever- the mixed media take is pretty interesting and fitting to the character. I like the way the panels leave the viewer guessing on how things are gonna go down Clever's segment left me at the edge of my seat! Juxta, not only is your art absolutely incredible, but your rendering is something I aspire to achieve! Every single panel could be an illustration by itself, the storytelling and pacing are phenomenal! Clever is such an endearing character, and I'm always super excited to see more of him!! His enthusiasm is contagious, and while it left me with so many questions! The little creatures reminding him of 'a certain someone' makes me think of a certain little Chaneque... :) Charlie's poker night was such a fun one! From the colors, the style..Ramunas being banned from the event but showing up anyway was hilarious. I love the chemistry between the characters! It was so nice to see some sort of """normalcy""" with a bunch of characters just hanging out and having fun between all the chaos that are the Voidlands, regardless if their night ended rather quickly lmao! Lily and Holden's was so sweet and romantic! The mood lighting, the color palette, the creatures floating around- I don't think there'd be a better spot to propose to your sweetheart! That exchange at the very end was both funny and very cute. Holden is such a sweet zombie, the love he has for Lily is crazy! Rocío and Kubo's moment was very bittersweet. I'm always a sucker for characters cooking in comics, it's such a domestic, normal action for 'abnormal' characters to partake in. Their dialogues were sweet and to the point, the worry they have for the other's well-being is always nice to see! God, I could really go for an arepa about now And last but not least- the rumble! I am absolutely obsessed at the ring being surrounded (?) by barbed wire- it's such a subtle detail into showing us how unusual and brutal the rumble really is! Addalar's intro and motivations were pretty great, and LOVED the different types of monsters in the crowd. I'm excited to see what comes of that!!

I have to say, Volume 2 exceeded my expectations! The quality of the work is simply outstanding, and it's wonderful to see the relationships between the characters, whether they're platonic or romantic, evolving into stronger bonds. (Although I must admit, Swan's disdain for Raven's cooking never fails to amuse.) Reading this from start to finish was an absolute blast, and it has me eagerly anticipating what Volume 3 will bring. Am I setting my expectations too high? Well, maybe just a bit [smirk]. But I have complete confidence in all of you; your talent and skills are truly exceptional. A special shoutout to Pyras for taking the lead on this monumental project. Your dedication, leadership, and organizational skills shine through in this series of comics, providing everyone with the opportunity to showcase their remarkable talents. Once again, congratulations to the entire team! You've done an amazing job.

I'm gonna divide my comment into the parts - GMVL/Keito : Absolutely loved the colors and the fantastic energy that was present throughout this comic. It was the perfect opening to the anthology, whoever put together the pages should be proud. The renders were so lovely, and the backgrounds were stunning, wonderful comic! I'd love to see more of Keito in the future! ANACS/Vidia & Nagore: I loved the build up that led to their romantic encounter, it's been such a fun ride seeing how naturally they like each other, especially after Armageddon. The colors were pretty, and the wide angles used were spectacular (I'm a tiny bit jealous at how naturally they seem to work themselves into your collabs)! Your styles work very well together, I'm excited to see how their relationship develops in the future. Reunited/Clever: I LOVE YOUR ENTIRE ART STYLE AND STORYTELLING ABILITY. Clever is such a fun character, and every time I see him in a comic I want to fight him more and more. The colors are wonderful, and I love how you draw expressions and build up tension in your comic. Please fight/collab with me! Picnic/Kubo & Rocio: Another pairing that works really well with each other, I love the whimsical feel of this comic. It's a nice break between the tension of the previous comics in the anthology. Their interaction is absolutely wholesome and I'd love to see more of them, especially as comrades in arms. The food looks delicious, I hope Rocio is willing to share! PR/Kurdis & Sorridega: Interesting story! I'm glad to see that Kurdis is set on making their town their own, the colors looked nice on this. RRR/Wendigo: Loved the tension and build up for this, just to have Wendigo appear at the end! The lighting was dramatic and really had me wanting to know what was going to happen next. I'd like to see more of what Wendigo is up to (outside of gathering more homunculi?)! PN/Kubo, Lily, Holden, Charlie: Very fun comic, I loved the humor and the light-heartedness of it! It's nice to see characters just hanging out and having a nice time, especially a group that acts as guardians and warriors. SG/ Lily & Holden: Adorable, I'm so glad they took that last step to being together! Very romantic, your styles are very cute together. I can't wait to see more! V-TH/Crikey & Swan: I'm always blown away by how the ladies of VCV collab together, and this is no different! The tomatoes make me want to bite into one, even though I can't stand them, pff. The colors are nice, and the angles really work well with the story! Swan's expressions are priceless, and Crikey is such a sweetie, I hope she finds her happiness. ;; WU/Arena: I think this was a very interesting story to end on, and the layout has me curious as to what Arena will be up to in this new desert land! Overall, really lovely job on this, everyone! I'm always excited to see such lovely comics in anthologies!

Wow this was one impressive collage of stories showing off the strengths of everyone involved. Great job everyone and I am looking forward towards volume 3

Oh oh oh oh can't wait

CAN'T WAIT TO READ THIS!!!

Super excited for this!!!

LET'S GOOOOOOOO
