The artwork were tremendous! With a polished image and good clean story. I would say that my only problem at reading it was probably too much unnecessary angst and family drama (then i realise that it was the main topic of the comic, oops). I do esteem the hard work of Gerard Way, awesome writer,...
I'm not into the superhero comic genre, but got lured into reading this one by the promise of Gabriel Ba's art (which I knew from the excellent Daytripper, with Fabio Moon), only to be disappointed (Daytripper set expectations too high I guess). I'm not into gothic fantasy or into steampunk eithe...
The art was fantastic. *-*The story... Meh. I don't usually read superhero comics, but aren't we over villains who just want to destroy the world? Then again it wasn't boring, I wanted to keep reading and even liked the characters. I'd like to know more about them. I just thought it was a bit sup...
The characters weren't as interesting as I'd hoped, except the outcast, Vanya, for a brief period of time in the beginning. I was surprised with the story, because I didn't know what to expect from the lead singer of My Chemical Romance - turns out it's a cool idea. An X-Men-esque group called Th...
My friend actually loaned me this book. The story sounded interesting, I mean seven children born mysteriously with unique super powers? Um, yes. As I was reading it the characters were cool, I liked The Rumor and Spaceboy the best. Spaceboy had something terrible happen to him so doctors had to ...
Very good. Creative. Messy. Not life-altering. If I had a stack of them, I'd keep reading.I like origin stories, and this was a condensed origin story based primarily in a time after the heroes have fallen. We are called upon to accept all the former glories as glorious, and placed into a story a...
The story felt very complete, even though this is called Vol. 1. I enjoyed that Way didn't spend all this time going into the personality, background, and powers of each of the main characters. The writing depended on the reader picking up on that as the characters interact with each other and re...
Hala her sayfası hatırımda olan The Umbrella Academy'nin ilk cildi, Kıyamet Senfonisi'ni okuyalı uzun zaman oldu. Dallas'ın çıkmasını da heyecanla bekliyordum. Çıktı, aldım ama okumaya başlamam uzun sürdü. Başladıktan sonra da bir gün içinde bitti. Ah şu çizgi-romanların akıcılığı yok mu...Kıyame...
Even better than the first volume!Shock full of violence and gore with a dash of dark humor that works perfectly well with the tone of the story and Ba’s awesome illustrations. With the character introductions out of the way and a near apocalypse to get over, the story starts out running and cont...
Me ha gustado mucho eso de mezclar a los superhéroes con hechos históricos. En verdad son los únicos cómics que he leído sobre superhéroes. De los héroes clásicos hay tantas historias que no se por cual empezar, pero tengo claro que quiero seguir leyendo cosas de esta temática, al menos como desc...
Any Dr. Who fans out there? I think you will find some delightful surprises in this second installment of the Umbrella Academy. It's not that this has Dr. Who references per se, but there are definitely some similarities that fans I think will recognize. The art work is fun, playful and colorf...
I loved it, but...I guess the romance is gone so soon after having read the first one.The element of surprise isn't as great as the first one, we already know the characters and there isn't really all that much to reel us in anymore.It's still WAY better than most of the stuff that's out there, a...
I don't know what to think yet actually. My friend just lend the first 4 volumes, and I just finished reading the first one (this one)I like the concept of the story (wich I already knew a bit about, since Im a MCR fan and I really liked this last album), but I dunno why the art doesn't convince ...
