Fantastic and Funny Graphic Novel,
By Abrahamal Lincolni (Provo, UT USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Southland Tales: The Prequel Saga (Paperback)
Strangely enough, this Graphic Novel Prequel Saga is better than the film, "Southland Tales" which comprises Episodes 4-6. If the film had managed to capture the same tone and pacing as the graphic novel, it likely would have been far more successful in the movie-plexes.

This review is from: Southland Tales: The Prequel Saga (Paperback)
I liked the movie, so reading this was fairly easy.
Like most people, the first time I watched the movie, I was clueless as to what happened or what it meant. After watching it again and again, I loved it. The Prequel Saga graphic novel is pretty sweet. I wish that I had known about it before I watched the movie, as the Prequel Saga is supposed to be part 1-3 and the movie parts 4-6! The artwork is good and its very easy to read in one night. Highly recommended to anyone that LIKED the movie!

The prequel saga really helps spell things out for you.
I haven't seen the movie yet because I'm waiting for the DVD. Regardless though, I was very pleased to see that what I was being told was a very complicated and incoherent movie, was in fact exceptionally clear (at least by the standards of this novel. Again, I can't speak how well the movie will follow the book, but the graphic novel does "set the stage" very well. The drawing style is very similar to conceptual sketches, almost as though all they did was make storyboards and add color. But still, the style is interesting and this shouldn't deter anyone from reading the book. The story is very interesting, provided you give it a chance.
