Beautiful. From the art to the story , I was amazed by how much I was falling in love with the characters. It was tragic, heartwarming, and so freaking lovely. I was sucked in with how much Reaper and Waiting yearned for that something more. The story slowly gives you hints on their relationship and really I could read 20 more just about them. And it was illustrated so beautifully! The Reaper and The Waiting checks off the boxes for best queer graphic novel for me.
