Morning Glories looks really interesting. I just finished reading Hack/Slash: MFM last night and it was a really great read. I love this story.
I was thinking the same thing about Morning Glories, it does seem fairly interesting. Although I do think so far that it kinda sounds like this new live action show that’s starting on Cartoon Network; grab bag of typical kids (jock, nerd, miss popular, asian) all attending some school with a uniform policy but they have no contact to the outside world and no idea where they are besides the obvious of being in a school.
