jobis89's review against another edition
3.0
This book is spilt into two parts: the story "Throttle" written by the duo of Stephen King and Joe Hill; and "Duel" written by Richard Matheson. Throttle itself is a kind of spin-off of the Richard Matheson story.
I gotta say, the story Throttle was just okay. It focuses on a group of bikers who are angry after a drug-deal goes wrong, so they head out on the road quickly encountering a truck intent on killing them all. It kinda felt a bit all over the place, I didn't care for it much. The illustrations were pretty awesome though.
However, I much preferred the Richard Matheson story Duel. It was about a lone man who finds himself being chased down by a relentless truck intent on murder. This was more exciting and easier to follow than Throttle, I felt.
To be honest, the best part of this entire graphic novel was the introductions by Stephen King and Joe Hill. And they were too short-lived!
