Let Me Out

2.5 stars rounded up to 3.

I read a lot of graphic novels and this one felt disjointed and rushed. Pacing was good at the start but towards the end the story became jumbled, and random. I started having issues with the story after the characters would commit crimes but act like victims. Although I think character choice is excellent and inclusive, I feel like it was odd that the characters would do something immoral such as assault someone and then use an excuse that they're being targeted because they are queer. Kind of an odd way to get your point across. I also feel like some of the content fits our generation more than the 70s. Like the whole pronoun thing. I understand during the 70s that there was talk about pronouns where people would shorten they to te and things like that but pronoun talk is much more relevant today. I didn't feel a 70s vibe.

By the time the “devil” came into the story I was already checked out and wanted to get it over with.

What saved it for me is the inclusion of different characters and the art style.
