Last of the Lumberjanes

Lumberjanes: End of Summer Adventure by Shannon Watters, Kat Leygh

by Leave a Comment

So it turns out the Lumberjanes series has reached its conclusion with volume 20: “End of Summer Adventure”. This series has had ups and downs and I think the conclusion is a little mixed. On the one hand, the questions that really need answering are resolved. For example, what’s up with Rosie, what’s really going on in the forest around the camp, and what’s the spooky bad thing that got released a volume or two ago. But then again, the actual reveals are kind of […]

Finally this series is heating up again

Lumberjanes, vols, 17-19 by Shannon Watters, Kat Leyh

Bingo 6: Hot So the three most recent volumes of Lumberjanes (17-19) could really have fit into several categories, but I’m going to go with “Hot” because a chunk of one adventure takes place in the dinosaur age when the climate is pretty tropical, and during another adventure things get a little heated between Diana (goddess) and another goddess from a rival mythology, Freya. I have to say, I’d gotten behind with this series because it wasn’t as entertaining for a while, but thankfully, the […]

Not your regular girl scouts (Triple bingo!)

CBR13 Bingo: The Wilds Official book description: FRIENDSHIP TO THE MAX! At Miss Qiunzilla Thiskwin Penniquiqul Thistle Crumpet’s camp for hard-core lady-types, things are not what they seem. Three-eyed foxes. Secret caves. Anagrams. Luckily, Jo, April, Mal, Molly, and Ripley are five rad, butt-kicking best pals determined to have an awesome summer together… And they’re not gonna let a magical quest or an array of supernatural critters get in their way! The mystery keeps getting bigger, and it all begins here. I’m not outdoorsy in […]

I want follow through, at least once

Lumberjanes 16 Mind over Mettle by Shannon Watters, Kat Leyh, AnneMarie Rogers

by Leave a Comment

I’m starting to get a little bored with this current Lumberjanes pattern: focus on a specific scout who has a personal issue, adventure ensues, friendship lesson is acquired and possibly some personal growth. This time it’s Mal who feels like she’s the scaredy-cat of the group and wants to be braver; the thing I don’t get is why she goes to Ripley the team goof for help. Ripley is totally carefree and runs into everything without thinking; I wouldn’t call that brave, I’d be calling […]

Where the art and epilogue are the most interesting but there’s also a “Zebracorn Lovebeam!”

Lumberjanes True Colors by Lilah Sturges, Polterlink

Apparently the side series for the Lumberjanes comics are a trilogy; I found number three at the library so I figured I’d finish the trilogy. The thing is that all three seem to be more or less stand-alones all set in the same world with the same characters; although I might have a theory about the possible connections which has to do with the art; I’ll come back to this in a minute. The general plot scenario is pretty basic: one Lumberjane, Riley this time, […]

Lumberjanes do Friendship to the Max Indoors and Out

Lumberjanes (vols. 13-14) by Shannon Watters, Kat Leyh, Dozerdraws

Bingo review 14: Friendship Since a tagline for the series is “Friendship to the Max!”, I figure Lumberjanes vols. 13-14 counts for the Friendship square. After a few shaky installments, it feels like the Lumberjanes series is getting its groove back a little. For those unfamiliar, this is a comic book series that follows a group of girls who become friends at the Lubmerjanes summer camp aka “Miss Qiunzella Thiskwin Penniquiqul Thistle Crumpet’s Camp for Hardcore Lady-Types”. April’s the leader go-getter type, Jo’s the smart […]
