So first off, this issue does end off in a bit of a cliffhanger. Not the nail-biting sort. More like you know that there are finally going to be some answers in the very near future. At least, I hope that’s the case.
This issue had a lot of talking and glimpses to the past, but I also think it was necessary for the plot. They’re finally explaining how this situation got to this point. I think they’ll start connecting the dots in the next issue, but I can’t be sure.
I love all the subtle jabs at gender expectations in this series. They’ve been so spot on. It’s easy to assume that it’s all commentary on how women are treated, but that’s not quite true. This issue, in particular, brings to mind the subject of toxic masculinity but in a very unexpected way.
