Once & Future, Vol. 4: Monarchies in the UK by Kieron Gillen, Dan Mora

​I read these books with limited investment, which is to say I don’t care that much and I may forget the fine plot details from one book to the next, but they are fun. Oodles of fun and Dan Mora’s art just really knocks it out of the park.
The plot is actually quite decent – with King Arthur and his knights reimagined as nightmarish creatures determined to take over the world. From the Otherworld. There are other realms, tons of action and wild, wild, wild imagery.
Plus, you got the best grandma a boy can ask for. And a boy (well, a man, really) who asked for none of it and still got stuck saving the world.
Gorgeous and entertaining, this is an all-around fun adventure. Can’t believe this is the same person who did The Wicked and Divine which is practically unreadable in its tediousness (and I tried, at least two books). Guess he matured. Anyway, yeah, bright and bombastic. Fight the knights, fight the night, save the world. All that. Ok.
