The time jump is a neat idea; seeing all the communities and characters we've grown to know age drastically is at least different. The threat of the dead isn't really an issue at this point, as the past 4 volumes have been dealing with Negan, though the newest characters like Magna and her group are dreadfully underutilized. But the ending? And the whole setup of the Whisperers? Brilliantly done. I remember reading the issue where Ken and Marco are hiding from the herd and they hear the Whisperers talking. Great moment, great tease for what's to come. Plus, the slow buildup of the fair is nice.
