A perfectly fine iteration of a classic. I liked the art style well enough, and I think the story lends itself well to the graphic novel format. I think this is a good recommendation for men, lol, just because there's nothing super frilly about the graphic novel and it's fairly serious. I mean, I think men should read whatever their hearts desire, but YOU KNOW how they can be lol
I still think the movie that came out a couple years ago is my favorite version of this story but I don't think you can go wrong with trying the graphic novel adaptation!!! I do think everyone kind of looked a little the same but they ARE mostly European white folks so I mean

It has been decades since I first read this book, and I was totally intrigued when I saw there was now a graphic novel. Although I don't remember much from the original book, I thought this graphic novel was a fun throwback with a modern day format.
I have Agatha Christie books in my shelf but I wasn't able to pick up one so when I got this graphic novel, I immediately started it and I was fascinated with the murder mystery that happened in the Orient Express.
I will easily recommend this one to readers who are fans of Detective Conan and Sherlock Holmes. Looking forward to reading more of Hercule Poirot, 4.5 stars.

The famous Orient Express train to Europe is stopped in its tracks by a snowdrift. By morning, millionaire Samuel Edward Ratchett is murdered and stabbed a dozen times. Isolated by the storm without any trails on the fresh snow, the murderer is undoubtedly a fellow passenger. Can Detective Hercule Poirot identify the killer before they strike again?
When I think of Agatha Christie, I'm reminded of some of my happiest childhood memories reading cleverly crafted whodunits that absolutely blow my mind. Rereading EXPRESS after so many years, I'm still so impressed by how Christie comes up with the most original locked room mysteries.
Even better is the gorgeous full-color illustrations by Al-Greene that bring the characters to life. And I can finally put a face to Poirot! This version matches my imagination/memory waaay better than Daniel Craig's rendition

Very beautiful art. I haven’t read the novel so unsure how well this graphic novel stuck to the original, but I think having the imagery helped keep all the characters straight.
