Meh. Too preachy. Bully gets his and repents. Kinda boring.

The whole box turned out to be too much of that, too little actual excitement. ( )

Greg Pak makes weak attempt to give a redemption arc to the school bully from the first season of Stranger Things. Having had his arm broken and made to pee his pants in public by Eleven's telekinesis, Anthony "Troy" Walsh is traumatized, confused, and trying to figure out where he now fits in the school's pecking order of bullies and victims. He keeps leaning toward bully.

We see some of the events from season two from a distance, with some Demodogs running about a pumpkin patch for instance, but Walsh and his partner in crime, James Dante, just sort of meander off into their own pointless friendship thing.

The art isn't very good, with poor likenesses to the actual actors and characters that are hard to tell apart unless you pay attention to their clothes.

And I was really irked that one of the kids was carrying around some sort of pitchfork, but it is referred to by Walsh and Dante as first a hoe and then an ice scraper. Perhaps it was a failed attempt at humor to show how stupid they both are? ( )
