Christmas gift for the Kiddo, bought at Foreign Languages Bookstore, Shanghai, China. This is my last comic review for 2020. I've been mostly focusing on graphic novels lately, but I still have about have of the current Random Stack of Unread Comics to get through, so I hope to make that last me until travel restrictions are lifted and I can get back to the US to buy some new comics.
Title: Warriors: Tigerstar & Sasha
Issue: Volume 2: Escape from the Forest
Date: 2009
Publisher: Tokyopop / Harper Collins Childrens
Writer: Dan Jolley, Erin Hunter
Artist: Don Hudson
Letterer: Michael Paolilli
Editor: Jenna Winterberg
This story is a spin-off from Erin Hunter's Warriors novels, featuring the adventures of kittypet-turned-forest-cat Sasha, after she refuses to be part of Tigerstar's plan to rule the four clans.
Sasha tries to seek out her former owner among the housefolk, but instead finds herself on a tour boat, helping out the captain in some surprising ways.
This was a nice self-contained story (in spite of being the middle chapter in a three-part series), that resolved several plot points. It also featured a lot more interaction between cats and humans than most Warriors stories do, and it was fun seeing some of the story from the human perspective.
This is a solid addition to the Warriors canon of stories, with some tender moments and some fun bits of action.
Rating: 8/10
