Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart's last(?) (or so they say) outing as Wolverine and Professor Xavier respectively, this is a violent and bloody R-rated stand-alone that owes more to classic Westerns (in particular Shane) than to any of the other X-men movies to date.
Very loosely based in the Old Man Logan graphic novels, in that it follows an aging Wolverine in a future society following an undisclosed disaster, with that about all it takes from those stories.

So I have finally got started on reading these graphic novels. I have been an avid fan of the TV remake and am fully aware that the series and graphic novels do not run exactly scene for scene. Some characters have had longer roles or shorter roles, other characters added or omitted. That is not what I am concerning myself with whilst reading this novel.
What I am concerned with is how the book felt as I read it. I thought the frames were well drawn, if you take the time to look over each picture you really feel the emotions of each of the characters. At no point does it feel lacking from the sole use of greyscale, colour is unnecessary in this story. Considering there is limited writing used, the conversations between characters have been orchestrated to portray all the information and emotions needed.
It always takes me a few pages to get into a graphic novel, the switch to reading pictures and not written descriptions takes some getting used to, but this story is so gripping that it isn’t hard to get lost in it. Nothing is too gruesome or overdone (not that I mind gruesome) but some people may be put off as it is a tale set in a zombie ridden world, but actually this is a story about the effect on the people left standing. How they cope in this new harsh existence, and how they decide to make a new future for themselves. This is a great start to a series and I will be carrying on gladly and with a great deal of enthusiasm.

Love, Love, Love
This show gets more and more beautiful with each season. Jamie and Claire have a such an incredible bond that Im constantly in tears watching. Every character is memorable and they manage to pull off many graphic yet important topics. Might just be my favorite show on television, ever. Can't get the husband into it though so my Outlander time has been my own private time :) Time travel, passion, love, heartache, loss, war, there are no words to properly sum up this incredible show.

The Story is Compelling (2 more)
Well Written Novel
Strong Female Main Character
Start of an amazing series
This book is a little Beauty and the Beast-esque, which makes me love it all the more.
Especially as Belle is my favourite Disney Princess!
The main character is a strong female who overcomes many challenges, she certainly can't be seen as weak or a damsel in distress.
Highly recommend this YA series to anyone that enjoys fantasy, it is possibly a bit graphic for younger readers though.

I can see why this is such a popular series with kids. The story is pretty imaginative, or, at least, the characters and environments are. The art is also very cute. It's always great when a series is able to pull kids into reading. Hopefully this series will keep the decent quality up. I realize that this book got some low ratings on here, but as it is a graphic novel series meant for junior readers, I think thar it's off to a great beginning.
