Hello! It’s been a little while but I’m back with another graphic novel review, I’ve taken quite a liking to comic books! The graphic novel I will be reviewing is The Wicked + The Devine by Gillen McKelvie and Wilson Cowles. This is the first book of the collection: The Faust Act. I believe there are novel versions of these if I remember correctly. So let’s begin!From the first page I was engaged, the characters are stunning and beautiful. Before each chapter there is pictures of each of the gods, and wow they are pretty.
The story is about gods who come to earth, every two years they die and sort of reset. In this collection we see a story unfold about the protagonist meeting these gods and a murder takes place that is blamed on one of the gods.
At the end of each chapter I was already excited for the next one. At one point there is such an amazing twist (I won’t say in case you want to pick this beauty up) that made me gasp out loud.
This was such a visually pleasing story, the design is amazing and the use of bright colours. Very refreshing for the eyes. This collection cost me £9.99, a very good prices for a volume. I believe the next volumes are already released. Volume two is called Fandemonium. I will be ordering on Amazon!
I really enjoyed this graphic novel, it is stunning and the storyline is gripping. I found myself laughing out loud and I just thoroughly enjoyed reading it!
