The pictures throughout the book are amazing. (0 more)
Fantastic Read!
These books were wonderful. I love books that can pull you into a whole new place. Riggs hit a home run at that. The descriptions are vivid and bring you right into the world of the peculiars. The pictures throughout the book really make the characters come to life. I read every book in a couple days and I waited anxiously for each book even the graphic novels. If you are a fan on fantasy books, this is one that is definitely worth reading.

TIME OF YOUR LIFE had a very confusing plot and I barely managed to follow it. I have a feeling it would have worked better shot as a television show. The best part featured Xander and Dawn's dialogue, the rest was just okay, although the additions with giants, centaurs, and forest creatures are getting ridiculous and carrying BtVS a little too far away from the series I love. Also, I didn't find the artwork as pleasing to the eye as the previous graphic novels. Definitely my least favorite in season eight so far.

I enjoyed this comic having never seen any of Dana Simpson's work before.

I have not been reading graphic novels for long but I do enjoy a fun story that has been cleverly coloured and well written artwork. I liked the flow of Ozy and Millie and will be searching out further work by Dana Simpson.

The forward makes reference to this being some of Dana Simpson's early work and that newer comics have improved with time - I liked this and don't see where the improvements could be made.

Movie Favorite

"I love this picture because it showed me at a very young age the scope an animated movie could have. It also inspired me to look deeper into this genre and the different filmmakers working in it. I loved the graphic novels and it was the first time I saw a comic book translated to the big screen. It unspooled at a second run by my house and I saw it a TON of times. I also believe this is why I own a red Japanese motorcycle that goes really really fast. AKIRA HUUUUH?!"

I picked this book up on Netgalley by randomly looking through the graphic novels section on the website. This looked interesting and honestly, I'm really glad I took the time to read it. Gavin Aung Than was able to perfectly illustrate the struggle that many creative individuals have. It was truly inspiring. I think many people are scared to begin a project, or take a step out and create something different. This book has shown that you're not alone and the great creators in the world dealt with the same things that you are going though.

The artwork in this graphic novel is really fun. I enjoyed looking at the artwork and I really loved how it was illustrated.

All in all, the artwork, the words, everything was perfect.

*I received this book in exchange for an honest review.
