4.0 out of 5 stars This is a DC Comics Graphic Novel only plotted by KEW., February 3, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Tell Me, Dark (Hardcover)

Karl Wagner and artist friend, Kent Williams, sold the idea for a "Mature" graphic novel to DC's "mature readers" line, VERTIGO. Karl left the project before it was finished. Kent Williams got John Ney Reiber to step in and script the finished art. {I am told that this was John Reiber's big break into the comic book biz. - He is currently writing "Books of Magic" for Vertigo.} I understand that John never saw Karl's original script. If you like mature dark horror, this is a fun read with wonderful Kent Williams art.

This review is from: Tell Me, Dark (Paperback)

This graphic novel has some wonderfully dark art, with a striking use of colour throughout. The storyline is decent until a few pages into the fifth and final chapter, at which point it seems to become a bit oversimplified and corny. Overall, worth taking a look at, even if only for the art.
