Still slightly disjointed and wordy for my liking, but keeping my interest. Martin Simmonds amazing artwork elevates it though.
The City Upon a Hill is another excellent volume in The Department of Truth series. Collecting issues 8-13 (6-7 are apparently included in the third volume) this second trade edition continues the bizarrely intriguing story of Cole, Ruby, Lee, and Hawk with more beautifully disturbing artwork. This volume also explores the backstory of a smaller character in the form of letters. I'm not usually a big fan of pages of text in comic books, but I found this story to be compelling. Overall I really enjoyed this book! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
