Suitor Armor is a fantastic continuation of Volume 1! I absolutely love the illustrations and story, and cannot wait for Volume 3 after that cliffhanger.

I received an ARC from Clarkson Potter/Ten Speed Press | Ten Speed Graphic via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Thanks NetGalley and Ten Speed Graphic for the ARC.

This is the second volume of a great WebToon. It has an amazing story and the illustrations are beautiful. If you enjoyed volume 1 then you should grab this collection because the story continues to get better. If you haven’t already got volume 1 you should grab it and this one. Purpah has created an amazing world in this historical (kinda) romantasy manga.

This was fun sequel to the previous volume. I loved returning to the same characters and the world. I feel like we've only just begun to explore the dimensions of this world and I am excited to see where that goes. The character dynamics are excellent, especially with Norrix (this is a very biased take, as I really just have a soft spot for him). Modeus and Lucia are also great characters. The only criticism I have really is that the plot feels a bit slow, and I felt the ending was a bit contrived. Otherwise, a great sequel.

Suitor Armor has quickly become a favorite graphic novel series of mine. Purpah has built a wonderful fantasy world full of tension and conflict. Each character brings a unique perspective to the story, and Modeus and Lucia in particular have so much nuance to their development. Reimund has easily become a favorite, because he's just too darn cute. I can't wait to continue this series!

Absolutely loved this book! In all fairness when I read the first book I had to immediately read the rest on webtoon. This has become one of my new favourite series. The art is absolutely beautiful, if I’m not mistaken the art looks slightly different. The art seems to glow and illuminate off the page, it was very beautiful.

There’s also a bonus chapter at the end of the book that we don’t get to see on webtoon! It was of Baynard and Peres and we get a glimpse of how they fell in love!!!

That was a great time !
I really enjoy Modeus getting more and more comfortable with talking. And him talking his mind is touching and genuinely adorable .
It ended on an interesting part of the plot and because it is man Arc I will have to wait a loooong time.

This was a great follow-up to volume 1 and gave us more growth for some of our characters. I loved how light-hearted a lot of the romance was and found the graphics to be great. I'm looking forward to volume 3.

This volume starts to show the darker elements of this story, and it has me so intrigued! They slowly explain more of the story and its world, but also pose new questions that hopefully will be answered with time. The art is gorgeous and somehow has gotten even better than the first volume! I don't want to speak too much about the plot of this volume for fear of spoiling it. But I'm so excited for the third volume to come out!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review!

Thank you NetGalley for providing me an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

I've been following this series on Webtoon since it released, and I must say, just like the first Volume, I'm excited for the second. To see it, even in a digital form of a book, is so exciting. The story, the illustrations, the conversations between characters; they are all amazingly done by the author. The cover photo is beautiful. The artwork between chapters is beautiful. I cannot recommend this story enough. And I'm so happy to see it become a printed graphic novel version.

This one was just as cute as the first story, we get to learn more alongside our main character as she learns more about her kind. Though not all questions are answered, we learn a lot more about the world. Great world-building. I love seeing two main characters interacting, learning, and watching what the other will do. Some great developments happen in this book. The ending was such a cliffhanger that I want to know what happens next.

Review:

I loved this comic. I still have some catching up on Webtoon, but I loved going back and re-reading Lucia’s journey. It was nice getting to know the characters and more about the world. I feel so bad for Lucia and what she deals with in hiding who she is. I loved that Kirsi and Reimund were getting to know each other more. It was cute. Quinn and Lazuli are interesting and I hope to get more from them. Lucia becoming Norrix's apprentice was amazing. I loved her doing magic. The history of fairies and pixies is fascinating. The magic and the world were something I loved so much. I still have questions and can't wait for more answers, especially about V and the war. I haven't met Ricon yet, but I feel he's untrustworthy, and I worry Norrix might be too. The art and characters are amazing and the storytelling is so good. Overall, I enjoyed this read and can't wait for more.

Thank you netgallery for the arc

Loved it, but what a cliff hanger… was not expecting that and can’t wait to continue on. I also enjoyed getting to know more of the characters and their relationship with each other

This was just as adorable as the first!

The world is beautiful and it was built on a bit more in this volume. The plot is engaging and fun. The characters are so cute and likable and the romance is still building but sweet. I liked the reveal of the FMC being a fairy and them working together to start to find answers

I love graphic novels but I find that the pacing can be off in most of them but it is perfect with these. I felt fully immersed and the story had a great flow

The art is absolutely gorgeous. It is so captivating and really conveys the emotions of the characters, the beauty of the setting and the intensity of the action. It's just stunning especially in this second volume

And another sweet bonus chapter about Peres and Baynard? Loved it!

Thank you Clarkson Potter/Ten Speed Press, Ten Speed Graphic, and NetGalley for the ARC copy.
Volume 2 picks up right where Volume 1 ends, the story delves into the history of fairys and learning who our main character is.

Thank you Clarkson Potter/Ten Speed Press, Ten Speed Graphic, and NetGalley for the advanced electronic review copy of this fun book. This is a second volume in the Suitor Armor series which is based on the Webtoon webcomic and it starts where the volume 1 has ended. The situation becomes much more intense and dangerous for our main heroine as she explores her connection with magic. We also find out Norrix’s past and watch the blossoming romance between Lady Krisi and King Reimund. Looking forward to finding out how the story continues.

"Suitor Armor: Volume 2" is a young adult graphic novel by Purpah and the sequel to Volume 1. This continuing series follows Lucia, a fairy who has lived hidden amongst humans as a lady -in-waiting for years. In the last volume she met her first fairy (who was sneaking into the castle and captured). Lucia spends this novel trying to learn more about the fairy war and about fairies in general, while hiding her true self. Modeus, the sentient armor, continues learning about things, such as death. A recommended purchase for YA graphic novel collections where fantasy is popular.
