This is a ghost story about family bonds, secrets, maintaining relationships, life, and finding peace in a world of confusion. The story is fairly simple, and there are holes in it that definitely could have been filled, but it was a decent little story packed into a graphic novel.

High energy adventure
What a great story and adventure. Presented with real character depth, storyline, action, and just adrenaline on top of great art work, colouring and writing making this very special indeed. Absolutely brilliant graphic novel. picked up by chance but want to read all the rest now. Absolutely fantastic.

I'm a huge Neil Gaiman fan so I'd read the short story 'Snow Glass Apples' previously and enjoyed it. Although I've read most of his graphic novels with some of the recent adaptations of short stories I've not been sure if having a graphic novel version was really adding value. So when I saw there was a new adaptation of this one I had a look through before deciding to buy. All I can say is that the artwork is beautiful, Colleen Doran has done an excellent job bringing this to life, with sensitive handling of the more graphic details. I'd definitely recommend this, it's a lovely addition to any collection.

Good artwork and an interesting storyline, this graphic novel follow a young girl, Aika, who only speaks Swahili who seeks sanctuary in a church. the exact nature of what she is running from is not clear but the urgency and action lead to an exciting journey with a happy if rushed ending.

So the black death was actually a zombie plague! really?!? This is the kind of title that smaller publish houses can specialise in and as such will find its niche market of graphic novel lovers who will talk long into the night about the minutiae of the plot, unfortunately, that is not me,

I've read the Tamakis' work before. They really know how to create real characters in real settings. Just because it's a graphic novel doesn't mean that it's only meant for kids. Oh, this is so not. I only recommend starting in the upper teens (Like 15, 16 years old) to read this book.

Dark avengers
My kinda graphic novel what if the avengers were team of bad guys mostly former members of the thunderbolts team and led by Norman Osborne himself when he's not the green goblin. It works as a comic and to see Osborne leading his own team is interesting concept
