Review:
Negan is definitely one of the most interesting characters. He has such a loud personality, yet, he is also not as stupid as we would like to think he is. He has charisma, and a way of knowing how to get what he wants through manipulation. I like how he is able to evoke strong emotions, especially anger, and causes Alpha to react. However, he also does not get killed for being annoying, because he also has merits to him for keeping him alive. In these issues that are leading up to the coming war, it is very interesting to see how the developments from this act of war will transpire.

I really like the portrayal of Negan's strength and Eugene's apparent helplessness on this cover. It has a great contrast. As well, I like the portrayal of Rick's crew as looking like zombies shows the toll that the war is taking on them. A great cover.

Welcome to Feature Friday!

I am a big fan of Tetris, and I definitely would love this shelving unit. The colours on this would fit well in a kid's playroom, but with other colour options, it could be customized to fit anywhere.

What do you think?

Thank you for reading!
