I impulsively picked this up at McKay's Used Books last time I went. 

I have not, in any way, kept up with the comics, so I had to look up a bunch of characters. 

like, almost everyone on this spread. 

But, I enjoyed reading it, and I loved the art. I think I'll keep my eye out for other compilations of the comics.

Cloak and Dagger: Shadows and Light

414+ pages

Paperback

Amazing Used Bookstore find

Cloak and Dagger has been one of my favorite comics since I was a teen. I write beautiful, poignant things about it, but Blogger crashed, and I lost them all. 

So, pictures instead.

synopsis 

Details about which comics are collected in this volume, starting with their first appearance in Spider-Man.

First appearance 

First page of this volume. 

Cloak and Dagger and Spider-Man don't always get along.

But they find ways to work together. Sometimes.

Angst and arguments.

She's so glowy!

Detective Bridget O'Reilly (eventually aka Mayhem)!

There's an art collection in the back of the book, hence the weird page count. Those aren't numbered.

Graphic Novel

This graphic novel was a bonus book in one of the Owlcrate boxes. 

Both of my teens snatched it up and read it - one the same day it arrived, the other the next morning. Apparently it's an online comic - they both went off and read the next chapter as well. 

Isn't this the cutest about the author page? 

In all honesty, though, although this was a fast read I don't really care about it. The characters didn't stick with me, nor the world. The magic isn't super interesting to me either. 

I'll probably take this to my classroom library, if we ever go to school again.
