Here is Dean Koontz from the intro: ”This is why it seemed to me appropriate to update the Frankenstein legend to our time. I want to share with you a few pieces of the graphic novel that I really enjoyed. His update on the old story just fit together so well and made so much sense it was hard not to enjoy it. This is my first read on a Koontz work and I really enjoyed it. The graphic novel is based on the New York Times bestselling novel by Dean Koontz & Kevin J. Needless to say, I don't believe I'll be continuing the graphic novel series, but it did renew my desire to reread the novels, so I guess there's that? I can only imagine that anyone who hadn't read the full novels would feel fairly lost if this graphic novel was all they knew of the series. I haven't read the first book in many years and found myself struggling to piece together bits from my memories of it, because the graphic novel really only gives you snippets here and there. Moving on.īesides the illustrations, it felt sooo disjointed and rushed. really? He's composed of a bunch of dead bodies. First, the illustrations were an immediately frustration to me, because Deucalion legitimately looked like some sort of Fabio knockoff with a tattooed and scarred face, and.
Unfortunately, the graphic novel just really fell short of my expectations. I digress - I really enjoyed the full novels, and thought it was such a creepy and interesting story with such fun and lovable characters.
It's based off of Dean Koontz's Frankenstein series, which I've read the first "version" of (if you're unfamiliar, it's a 5-book series, but Dean originally intended it as a trilogy, so I've only read the first 3 books). I went into this graphic novel so freaking excited, because I fully expected to love it.
