Jurassic Park meets The Evil Dead,
This review is from: Monster Zoo (Paperback)
Monster Zoo tells the story of Ty, a skinny high-schooler who's trip to the zoo takes an unexpected turn for the paranormal. Fighting back a zoo-load of monster-fied animals, Ty's courage, and bravery shine through his akward teenager exterior.Okay, why did I like this book so much? First of all, it has believable-yet-unique characters. TenNapel gives depth to these characters through good dialogue, subtle and overt story moments, and solid artwork. The story telling is TIGHT! The story moves along at a good pace without feeling rushed or overworked. It's compelling and cinematic - a movie on paper. Lastly, TenNapel's artwork is outstanding. I love the imaginative designs of the monster-animals, and the clarity with which he lays out panels and pages. TenNapel's visual language crossbreeds Bill Watterson's loose, gestural brushwork with Mike Mignola's tight sense of composition. In conclusion, I loved Monster Zoo. It's Jurassic Park meets Evil Dead. A blast to read!

A little bit darker then what I would expect from TenNaple but still awesome all the same. His style of drawing is the kind that can keep you entertained even if your not reading the book, and when you do it just makes it all THAT much better.

This review is from: Monster Zoo (Paperback)
I try to buy graphic novels for my middle school classroom library to help struggling readers bridge to more complex texts. This book was disappointing. If I had known it was full of people giving themselves wedgies, flatulation humor, and other off color comments, I would not have purchased it. Also, the binding is horrible. The book totally fell apart with the first reading. It didn't even make it to the library shelf. What a waste of money!
