Fandemonium, the follow-up to the fantastic Faust Act, takes a while to get going. After the happenings of the first volume, we see Laura trying to come to terms with what happened. She slowly returns to her life, but her life has been thoroughly changed by the gods.

I thought the beginning was rather slow, and it took a while until I was swept up into this fascinating world of gods walking among us. Halfway I was convinced - and near the end I was blown away. The last few scenes gave me goosebumps. Any comic that can give me goosebumps deserves 5 stars.
