About the authors

Richard Castle is the author of numerous bestsellers, including the critically acclaimed Derrick Storm series. His first novel, In a Hail of Bullets, published while he was still in college, received the Nom DePlume Society's prestigious Tom Straw Award for Mystery Literature. Castle currently lives in Manhattan with his daughter and mother, both of whom infuse his life with humor and inspiration.

Kelly Sue DeConnick is best known for surprise hits like Carol Danvers' rebranding as Captain Marvel and the Eisner-nominated mythological western, PRETTY DEADLY; the latter was co-created with artist Emma Ríos.
DeConnick's most recent venture, the sci-fi kidney-punch called BITCH PLANET, co-created with Valentine De Landro, launched to rave reviews in December 2014 and has since been nominated for an Eisner.
DeConnick lives in Portland, Oregon with her husband, Matt Fraction, and their two children.
Under their company Milkfed Criminal Masterminds, Inc., DeConnick and Fraction are currently developing television for NBC/Universal.

While checking on Amazon for some action graphic novels since I had read most of the Hex and Punisher books, I came across this graphic novel (Deadly storm: A Derrick Storm mystery by Richard Castle) and decided to purchase it. In this series Derrick Storm is a former private detective who now works as a CIA operative. In this action packed story Derrick is trying to find a missing husband and he winds up involved with a beautiful CIA operative while in the process of investigating the missing husband.
There are many twists and turns during this story and the illustrations are all in color and look fantastic. If you are into action graphic novels you may want to check out the Storm series.
Rating: 4 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Chair/Seated Tai Chi/Qigong/Yoga stretching for seniors and the physically challenged).

Graphic Novel. Hardcover edition
Blurb: CASTLE fans rejoice! For the first time anywhere, CASTLE's titular hero Derrick Storm comes to life in the pages of this all-new graphic novel. This "adaptation" of Derrick Storm's first novel adventure takes our hero from the gritty world of the private eye all the way to the globe-hopping intrigue of the CIA. Eisner Award-winning Marvel Architect Brian Bendis and red hot Osborn writer Kelly Sue DeConnick worked closely with CASTLE creator Andrew Marlowe to create the one thing millions of CASTLE fans have been asking for: Their first real Derrick Storm adventure. A wall-to-wall, gritty, witty, globe-hopping detective thrill ride for fans of the hit TV show starring Nathan Fillion and Stana Katic, as well as fans of darn good comic books.
I'm not a major graphic novel reader. This is my second (first was 30 days of night). As a fan of the hit ABC series, I have bought two of the Richard Castle novels, Heat Wave and Heat Rises. The TV series mentions Derrick Storm on several occasions. So, I thought why not grab a copy and give it a read.
And I'm glad I did. It was better than the 'Heat' books and it moved at a much faster pace. Derrick Storm is a PI who gets hired by the CIA to track down an ex-CIA agent. A 'person of interest' that he was currently investigating of behalf of this agent's wife.
Things are not as they seem in this graphic novel as they are with all episodes of Castle. There are twists, turns and double dealing (better than Castle). There are a few confusing spots in the storyline and there are a few pages were Derrick Storm doesn't look anything like the Derrick Storm on other pages, especially hair colour and facial shape. In a graphic novel it is not just the story that counts, it's the details in the images as we need these to put two and two together and get five.
Overall, the story is pretty good and entertaining (as a story should be).
With that premise, I had no idea what I was getting into when my copy arrived. As a stand alone work I very much enjoyed the plot (no spoilers here), and most of the character development. The one exception is the character of Derek Storm, himself. There did not appear to be anything great about him. He's a bumbling detective who can barely pay his bills, and can't let things go once he is intrigued. Then he has a couple encounters with CIA agent, Clara Strike. She hires Storm they bump into each other a couple of times, and does not have a deep relationship with her, until she makes a choice that saves Storm's life but costs Strike her own life. After that Storm gets his act together and is set to become an excellent CIA contractor.
As a merchandising effort for the Castle TV show this book is a great product. The comic book "adaptors" Brian Bendis, Kelly DeConnick, and, Lan Medina, do an incredible job of capturing Nathan Fillion's portrayal of the character Richard Castle as the original author. So if you are a fan of the TV show, you will believe that Richard Castle created it. The one liners, the "you know this how" elements all ring true to the show.
So,if you enjoy graphic novels you will enjoy this work, if you are a fan of the show, you will have a great read ahead of you.
Deadly Storm is our introduction to PI Derrick Storm. He is very much like the Castle character on the TV show. Smart, creative, impulsive, charming, and a bit of an idiot.
He gets himself caught up in a case which brings him in touch with CIA operative Clara Strike. Their partnership in this adventure is comical.
I'm not into comic books, which is why this got 4 stars instead of 5. But I enjoyed the story. I laughed many times over the stupid things Storm said. A lot of the dialog is cheesy, but still awesome. I look forward to reading the next installment.
