This review is from: Method Man (Paperback)
I honestly did not know what I was getting into as I began to read Method Man, by Method Man, Sanford Greene and David Atchison. As one who generally does NOT read comic books or anything of that style, I must say that this was a pleasant surprise and has me wanting to read more in the world of the cocky private eye, Peerless Poe.
Poe, is a direct descendant of Cain, the first son of the earth, which enables him to pull out a spiritual and physical strength and rage from within that is truly out of this world. He finds himself unwillingly pulled into working alongside two members of the "Order of the Sacred Method," a society he was once a part of but could not follow their rules and restrictions. A true vigilante at heart, the society calls on him for help as they fight to conquer Lilith, who seeks to connect a tower from the hell below to the heavens above. She knows that she must first destroy the Sons of Cain as they had thwarted her plans in the days of long ago in their attempt to atone for the sins of Cain, the world's first murderer. With a VERY original storyline, absolutely great black and white graphics and humor sprinkled throughout the story, I highly recommend this book and give it two thumbs up. As one that does not generally read comic books I really enjoyed this one and definitely want to read more about Peerless Poe aka Method Man. Reviewed by Coulee Eidos APOOO BookClub

This review is from: Method Man (Paperback)
And you honestly have to give Method Man the most credit for that. The art was okay, but not great and the writting was nothing special. I've purchesed bargain comics from Half-Priced Books that have better dialogue and pacing. I have to blame both the writer and artist for that.
If you say that this is a great comic you'd be lying to yourself. Even Method Man himself said he didn't like it, read the interviews. I will have to say it's got me hungry the GZA and Ghostface's graphic novels and I'll try out Method's next gc to see if it has gotten any better. This is what the Wu-tang should be doing right now, writing and making movies.

An average first graphic novel,
By Wicked Cartoons (Charlotte, NC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Method Man (Paperback)
The story is intriguing at times, but falters in much of its' dialogue. The flow of panelling and the graphic storytelling is quite nice. However, the artwork is very sketchy and loose and looks more like the "roughs" for a comic book than the completed project. It was a bit of a disappointment that the artwork was in black+white considering the price. Overall, it it not a bad book, but Sanford Greene's artwork has been much stronger on other titles.
