This adaptation retells Bradbury's masterwork in a Gothic & moody graphic style. Hamilton is able to spare some of Bradbury's beautiful prose, but I agree with many reviewers that this rejuvenation should not replace the original.

While this was a passable adaptation of Bradbury’s novel in terms of ideas conveyed, I really disliked the art style: it was too dark, trying to be too noir, and obfuscated everything in swaths of black on an already muted color palette.
