Beyond Hawkins Lab, Starcourt Mall, Dungeons and Dragons, Monsters, and Mindflayers, the powerful children that have escaped from Hawkins Lab are out in the world, trying to live normal lives, but it comes at a steep cost. Nine was left behind in Hawkins Lab, comatose and alone. Now she lives in a fractured reality of her own creation under the watchful eyes of doctors who have no idea about the psychic volcano-building insider her that erupt at any moment, obliterating their entire hospital. Three and Nine's twin sister both escaped Hawkins lab several years ago and have been on the run ever since. They had just settled down into a new life when, all of the sudden, the lab has made the national news. With the veil of normalcy completely shattered, they pack everything they have and hit the road, hoping to find and help any of the other kids they can. When Kali (number Eight) informs them that Nine is still alive it becomes a race against the clock to save a beloved sister, from the doctors that keep her, as well as the delusions that threaten to fracture her psyche beyond repair. Perfectly penned by writer Jody Houser (Critical Role, Star Wars: Tie Fighter) with kinetic pencils by Ryan Kelly (New York Four, Star Wars) and tight inks by Le Beau Underwood (Catwoman, Immortal Hulk) this third book in the Stranger Things comics line takes the story to brand new territory.… (more)

This is a direct sequel to Stranger Things: Six, with Hawkins' Labs subjects Ricky and Marcy -- formerly numbered Three and Nine Point Five -- in hiding, having escaped from Dr. Brenner's experimentation. They hit the road again to find another fugitive, Eight (Kali Prasad), only to discover that someone they thought was dead is still alive and in need of rescue. Back to Hawkins!

It's a borderline mediocre story, but as Houser fleshed out these characters who do not appear in the show, I found myself getting sucked in and hoping for at least one more go-round with them in the future.

There is also a short back-up story with the core ST cast wherein Nancy Wheeler tries to help her brother Mike cope after the disappearance of Eleven in Season One. ( )
