This was definitely one of the most interesting experiences with short-comics I've had so far. While not all stories were super extraordinary, you can certainly get what the authors were trying to do with their narratives. I liked some stories better than others (my favorite one was probably the Adjustment's one, with Temperance following in a close second place just because I love the theme and scenario). Every single story features characters from the LGBTQ+ spectrum (except maybe for Asexual, but I might be wrong), with majority of them being POC. For most of them, the art style is very different, interest or unique (or all three). I would have enjoyed it more if the pages had been colored, but I understand that it would probably make the book awfully expensive.

Either way, this is something that I recommend for everyone who enjoys comic books and feels that LGBTQ+ characters are lacking in the mainstream media.

Tabula Idem is a breath taking series of stories, a tale of amazing beginnings. Each story ends with a new start and every start is the beginning of something amazing. The art is breath taking in nearly every story and each story provides a lovely world I wish I got more time in. Tabula Idem is truly fantastic.

Really, really cool and sweet and just.. Ahhhh!

The stories here include wild adventures, a talking sheep, wonderful creatures, ghosts, magic and budding romance.

This is a giant compilation of tarot inspired comics showcasing a wide range of story and art styles.

Amazing stories and illustrations with crazy different variations and characters. So fresh and non-formulaic which is surprising, given the archetypal nature of tarot.
my favorites were The Sun "Celebrating the Midwinter Birth of the Sun" Maia Kobabe & Alexandra Genetti for the always exquisite drawing of Maia Kobabe. Eir characters are always full and rich while eir storytelling and narrations are discreetly but deeply empathic and poignant. E is a sizzling refresher for the weary brain, eyes, and heart, always an incredible pleasure to read and digest. Adjustment "Belladonna" by Petra Nordlund & Muura for hilarious characters and plot an cheeky loveable gay boys. The Tower "A Tower Firmly Set" by Steve Foxe & Andrew Drillon for beautiful drawing, character design and development, and interesting costuming.
Brief and helpful synopsis before each card make understanding context simple for anyone unfamiliar with tarot.

A fascinating and illuminating exploration of the Major Arcana told as comix tales. The styles and stories are vast and varied, some more to my liking than others, however as a whole this collection is quite enjoyable and reveals new and contemporary insights into these beloved archetypes.

The artwork was stunning! I loved getting to see the works of all the different creators in this. I do wish some of the comics were longer, though.
