After reading the first volume, I was slightly disappointed with a few things, but thought it was okay. The second volume was nothing short of amazing! The art doesn't looked like it was rushed and I like how Jareth and Sarah now look. Sarah looks beautiful, and Jareth now looks more like his royal self. I hope the next cover will have them both.
I love with what was done with Moppet, as she is now a more developed character. It'll be interesting to find out why she looks so much like Sarah. Also, she has more a backbone, so it's nice to see her be a much stronger person than she was before.
It seems that after Jareth lost to Sarah, he was very bitter, yet he still wanted her to be a Queen. That, combined with the finale scene, and the prophecy will lead things to an intrusting conclusion.
Moppet's discovery makes it very clear that if Sarah had lost, Jareth had already had her room prepared. No to mention the music box she finds. Still, why wouldn't Jareth have had the room destroyed? He must've saved it for possible future use. Still, with what Drumlin pulled, that room has been destroyed and Jareth isn't around to answer any questions.
Without his magic, Jareth seems to have trouble going through the Labyrinth. It was funny to see him crawl like a hamster though a tunnel.
Spittledrum had earned his name. It I doubt he'll ever find the respect he wants when someone taped a "kick me" sign on his back.
Sarah's reaction to seeing Jareth will be interesting. Will she faint, or will her lack of people food make her somewhat grouchy ? Her cat doesn't seem to like Jareth either. No to mention how will she react when she finds out that her brother has become the Goblin King ?
Also, it's noted that this will be a four part series, not three.
