The Obverse Quarterly, Book Two: Señor 105 and the Elements of Danger
edited by Cody Quijano-Schell

The second volume of The Obverse Quarterly takes us firmly in Obversiverse territory, with the first collection dedicated to Señor 105, the masked man of the elements. Previously appearing in Iris Wildthyme and the Celestial Omnibus and Miss Wildthyme and Friends Investigate, Señor 105 here makes the jump to his own stories. Unfortunately, I didn't find any of these quite as enjoyable as the previous Señor 105 stories; these were weird and surreal and sometimes fun, but never quite clicked for me, unfortunately. My favorite one was the quick joke story at the back by editor Quijano-Schell, "Deleted Scene from 'Iris Wildthyme and the Key Lime Pie 2 Time' - 'Part 3: The Stones of Blood'."
