What Birds Know/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: A rare moment of happiness and light among this horribly depressing story is when Vandi's mother makes a miraculous recovery, and the family comes back together again.
  • Nightmare Fuel: The whole comic is very, very disquieting - no blood and guts, just a haunting sense of wrongness. The Body Horror of the eggs. The Stepford Smiler habits of the girls. The panicking(?) birds. The ominous fate of the figures left to "His Highness'" punishment, complete with desperate pleading and frightening silhouette. Every shot of the parallel dimension, which can creep you out just as much as Vandi...
  • Tear Jerker: Everything. The Flash Backs to the girls' childhoods are absolutely gut-wrenching, especially when we jump back to the present and can connect all the dots. Generally, whenever you think something can't possibly get any worse, it does.
