The art alternates between typical comic book and hyper-realistic styles. We see hyper-reality in the regular life scenes, giving a sense of realism to the action. The battle scenes are rendered in a comic book style that lends itself well to the classic elements of a superhero fight scene. Magical elements are drawn with a great level of detail and the monsters are brilliantly grotesque.
NOTE: I was provided a free copy of this book via NetGalley in exchange for my honest, unbiased review.
Are better than the Valiant original
The Brethren, (bad guys), and the Abettors, (good guys), are duking it out over some powerful artifact, and Shadowman and Alyssa are in the middle. Shadowman is still angsty about the loa he's carrying around, and while he has sort of defeated Darque, now he has to deal with Darque's sister, who's even more dangerous and sinister. And now you're up to speed.
The fun part is that Shadowman is an interesting guy, and his torment about being bonded with a loa is low key and pops in and out of the story when needed and appropriate. Otherwise, he's all action, cunning, and snappy patter. Almost better, his gal pal Alyssa is powerful, smart, and totally pulls her own weight as an actioner. They make a sexy, and well matched, team, which is a real bonus.
The tale is well paced and well balanced. You get exposition, action, demon fighting, villain monologuing, voodoo and magic, pocket universes, macguffins, conspiracies, car chases, weird locations, and a disembodied talking head - so there's plenty to see and do.
The art is interesting. Careful attention has been paid to the characters, and they are much more expressive, (lots of close-ups), than seems usual. Panels vary a good deal; some seem almost photorealistic and some seem surreal or not entirely finished, (like they were colored outside the lines), and the overall look of the art is, literally, on the dark side. Some of the big splash pages are arresting and occasionally the level of detail is remarkable.
So, in terms of characters, story, and execution this turned out to be a nice find and a nice change of pace from the more usual hero/adventure types of tales. A good find. (Please note that I received a free advance will-self-destruct-in-x-days Adobe Digital copy of this book without a review requirement, or any influence regarding review content should I choose to post a review. Apart from that I have no connection at all to either the author or the publisher of this book.)
Shadowman is back from being recently dead. He barely has a chance to get his feet under him and finds he's in a war. Master Darque is gone, but Shadowman and Angela are on a mission to take hold of the remains. There is danger and treachery everywhere on this one, and Shadowman barely has control of his loa.
This has been a pretty good series and I like the largeness of the story. I also like the textured looking art that Renato Guedes gives here. It's interesting how it changes style at particular moments, too.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Valiant Entertainment, Diamond Book Distributors, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
