Feathers #2 picks up where the first issue left off as Bianca and Poe avoid the guards and travel around the Maze. It’s a chance for them to get to know each other and their contrasting personalities are what helps make them endearing characters. Bianca, the adventurous and rebellious girl from the city and Poe, the cautious feathered boy who lives in the shadows of the Maze couldn’t be more different, but they balance each other terrifically. Her enthusiasm for exploring is infectious and his curiosity for what lies in the city leads to a deal. He’ll show her around the Maze if she’ll show him the city. Not a bad bargain for two kids who’ve been isolated in different ways.
Bianca encouraged Poe to let himself be seen and be proud of who you are even if were born with feathers. It’s an empowering scene that teaches a great lesson to kids, but really something we could all remember. This may be an all-ages book but to value oneself and take pride in who you are is timeless advice for any age.
With only four more issues to go, Feathers, is a fun and charming mini-series. Something adults and children could enjoy together.
