Prepare your magic, your dragons and your plucky shapeshifting henchwomen because we are talking about Nimona! This delightful MFA thesis project began life as a fun, episodic webtoon (see previous episode Orange Marmalade) before eventually becoming a sprawling action adventure about trauma and tragedy. But it's super fun, we swear!
Also fun: Stevenson's evolving artistic style and the text's "no big deal" inclusion of queer and disabled characters, which sadly got lost in a lot of critical reviews at the time (Brenna has thoughts!)
