Date Published: November 11, 2015 Format: Paperback Source: Library Date Read: November 10-12, 2019 Review I got the gist of the story and I did enjoy reading it for the most part, but something kept me from loving this story. I think because it is set in "futuristic" England....in 1997. Also I re...
"V for Vendetta" is one of the few movies that, in these days of crowded shelves and almost infinite digital storage, I chose to own a physical copy of. It is beautifully shot, perfectly cast and boldly told. It is that rare thing, a movie that dares to be true to its intent, even at the risk of bei...
I remember teen-me liking this a lot more than middle-age me does. I couldn't appreciate the art style at all this time round and - in agreement with David Lloyd's Introduction - thought the early chapters were not so good - if you can call nearly the whole first half "the early chapters." It got in...
I've been on a spree of fantastic graphic novels for the past few months. I guess it had to end sometime.I loved Watchmen. While I took issue with Moore's treatment of women in that work, I also found it to be gripping, subversive, and smart storytelling. I was willing to overlook that lapse in narr...
It took me several attempts to finish this, and this time around I managed (finally) but it took almost two months. I thought it was really just me, but after skimming over some reviews, I see I'm not alone in being a bit underwhelmed by this one.I saw the movie when it came out, and I love it. It's...
This has been one of my favorite movies of all time. I watched it before I even knew there was such a thing as graphic novels (I lived a very cloistered life before). I watched it even before I really understood the meanings and the feelings and the underlying messages. It was like something just re...
I finished this awhile back and I was very much impressed by this graphic novel. It is a book for anyone whom would like to turn the world upside down and shake it of all its misgivings. It is a book for people whom believe that human rights and freedom should come before regimental order. If your ...
I just finished reading the Graphic Novel V for Vendetta and I was impressed. The black and white ink style of this comic melds beautiful thriller set in a post-war London where a vigilantly is trying to give the power back to the people whom are being controlled and dictated too by a conservative g...
I really don't know what the author means to convey from this graphic novel. I haven't watched the film or researched the meaning of the book. But holy hell, it kicked my arse. I thought it was pretty damn scary, the two extremes. Corrupt government in charge with every aspect of life heavily co...
My first, and probably my last, comic. My main problem was the dialogue, if you can call it that. The film looked intriguing though so I'd probably just go with that.
