I really like all the Melanie Gillman and Katy Farina comics, but this one is my favorite. It's so fun to see all the characters in ren faire outfits and all the interactions are so cute and funny. I'm still a little sad we never got a comic about Steven and Jamie from them. (This is pretty close though?!)Product details

Steven Universe 2017 #4 eBook Melanie Gillman Katy Farina Reviews
The fourth installment of the 2017 comic series for Steven Universe brings the Shorty Squad to a Renaissance Faire, subjecting Peridot to all manner of confusing human customs and some surprising potential for character growth. We get very little time with Steven and Amethyst and no time with Garnet or Pearl, but it's a delightful little spotlight on Peridot. The paper issue I own has the cover by Missy Peña!
Plot The Renaissance Faire is in town. Steven, Amethyst, and Peridot venture inside, where Peridot is routinely misinterpreted as a child for some reason. She tries face-painting and is offended at being seen as cute, while Steven purchases costume wings and Amethyst enjoys the medieval eats. After Peridot is disrespected again at the sword booth and given a play sword to swing around, after which she becomes very grumpy, so they take her to watch the joust, where she roots for the villain Sir Render. This villain makes short work of seven opponents until a child challenges them, and when Peridot sees this unexpected win, she concludes that a short stature provides a competitive advantage. She quickly enters the joust and finds that she too can beat Sir Render, but something's fishy. She didn't even touch them with her weapon, and on top of that, their jousting rod seems to be made of foam. She's furious that this person is faking losses to make kids feel better. She finds the actor, challenges them to a duel, tricks them into thinking she's injured, and smacks them on the nose, causing a minor injury. This then leads to their party being escorted out, but Peridot's learned what her temper can do to others and actually apologizes. They leave as a group of goats released by Onion terrorizes the faire.
Notable bits for fans
1. The Beach City humans are all over this faire dressed up in renaissance gear! We see Vidalia in a corset, Ronaldo in a Robin Hood outfit, Peedee in a knight shirt, Kiki dressed as a fairy, Sadie in a knight outfit and Lars looking sort of like a squire, food booths run by Mr. Fryman with a flower hair ring and Jane in a princess outfit, Mr. Smiley as an elf running the face paint booth, Barb as Lady Hachette (a sword merchant), and Jamie as the joust announcer in a bard costume.
2. The designs available for face painting include a lion identical to Lion and a Diamond Authority symbol.
3. Jamie's address to the crowd begins with "Lords, ladies, and gentle-enbies..." I wonder how many people reading this know what an enby is. I would imagine SU fans would be more likely than most to know, but still, it's a lesser known term in most circles. (It's a way of spelling out "N.B." for "non-binary." Which is a gender category represented on this show sometimes.)
4. Onion enters the joust and is referred to as "Sir Shallot of Castle Vidalia." Oh the onion names.
5. Sir Render is a relatively beefy knight actor who is referred to with they/them pronouns. I appreciate that not every nonbinary character is traditionally androgynous. This comic series is consistently good about that, like when the first issue had a bird named Susan that still wasn't automatically assigned she/her pronouns. Names, titles, and appearances don't necessarily match up with the genders people traditionally expect.
6. The opponent in the "Beach Citadel" joust is from Ocean Town. Haha. (Ocean Town is a place that was destroyed in some disaster that's never explained in the show. Its current claim to fame is that it is "No Longer On Fire!")
Peridot was funny, but it's too bad we didn't get to see Pearl at this faire. She would have nitpicked everything that wasn't historically accurate--and probably would have been even more interested in swords than Peridot. Can't wait to read the next one!
I will always support the Steven Universe show . This was a great fun comic to read plus Peridot was always a treat
I liked how they included peridot! So amazing! Keep up the awesome work! I really loved it!!! I just love Steven universe!
