Review: Watchmen

Presentation: Watchmen was one of the most talked about graphic novel and introduced many readers to the world of comic books, and it is one of the must-read for every comic fan.


Story:  The story of Watchmen takes place in 1985 in an alternate history where superheroeswho have ceased their vigilante seem to disappear one by one, while the Third World War threatens to erupt at any time with the Eastern bloc . The appearance of Dr.Manhattan in 1959, a superman with powers by almost the equal of a god, has changed the history we know: the United States won the Vietnam War, the Watergate scandal was choked, oil is no longer a major source of energy, and Richard Nixon is still president in 1985. The album is interspersed with several pages of written materialfrom the world of Watchmen. Newspaper articles, long passages from the diary of one of the characters, these documents do not directly serve the plot of the story but cangive depth to the world of Watchmen.


Drawing:The drawing isn't the best but it gives the comic it's own style . everything is very detailed the characters are very well designed. It may throw some readers off at the beginning but soon they will find that drawing isn't what makes this comic so good.

Verdict: This is as i said a must read . It has everything drama conspiracy theories.... If you can get your hands on this graphic novel you won't regret it. I give it a [9/10]

what we will be reading : Watchmen

I think this is a must for our blog. I have read it but for the fun of it i'll read it again.

Hope you enjoy it ! 

Review: Blackest night

Presentation: green lantern never received the love that it deserved . But in this serie is where green lantern shines

Story: The story is too long to put in a few lines but it's about this prophecy mentioned in the book of Oa . i seriously did not like the story it is told as if you read everything from the dc universe and that threw me of at the beginning but as i was reading the story i found a lot of similarities with the marvel zombie, i am sorry if i am not developing it enough but it's not very good.

Drawing: The drawing is what kept me going . how the characters are displayed is just amazing , everyone get the same level of detail and all the corps colors is just great.

Verdict: It's a good serie if you are familiar with all the dc charcters but for casual readers it's just confusing . For that i give a [6/10].



P.S.: this review isn't very good just for the fact that i didn't like reading the comic. I promise better reviews in the near future

Review: Kick-Ass

Presentation: Kick-Ass has to be one of the most talked about comic book series these past two years and it deserves every good word said about it.

Story: the story is about a a teenager who wants to be a super hero, it might sound lame but he is as far from a super hero as it gets and thats the good thing about it, it's not your teenager gets super powers story but how if you try to be a hero you get your ass kicked.I'm not trying to go into the story very much so i wouldn't spoil anything, but one thing i can say is that the ending is just AWSOME!!

Illustration: the drawing on this one is just great: very detailed and colorfull . and the characters drawings speak for them . I don't have a lot to say about it just because it's all i can say about it. it doesn't bring anything new to the world of comics but it fits this comic.

Verdict: i give it a 8/10. i enjoyed every page of this one, all the fight scenes some of them were gory but awsome.i didn't like one thing and it was that they had to put that cheezy "if you put your mind into it you can do it" thing. Point is: This is a must read .
