Tron: Legacy is one of my favorite movies of all time, and I was ecstatic to find this. I always wondered what happened to the world between the films, and this leaves much to be desired, sadly. I was pleased with Flynn and Tron's relationship and the explanation for CLU's hatred of the ISO's stemming from Flynn's perfectionist tendencies and CLU having the power to actually control one world, but it fell short in all other aspects. Wish there was more!

It was great! But I could be biased because I love Tron, and everything about it. It did provide some good insight into what Legacy will be about though.

Tron and Tron Legacy are two of my favorite films. This graphic novel fills in some of the story in the years between the movies. The artwork is bright and vivid, which suits the look of of the movies. But the character design is bland, and there are story elements that don't line up with the movies—for example, Kevin stepping down from being Encom CEO, and Kevin and Sam having no real father–son relationship, which is at the heart of Tron Legacy. The writer of this graphic novel seems to have spent all his time thinking about the grid, and the real-world story is neglected. A number of obvious typos also marred the reading.

I don't know why it was so hard to follow but it was. Maybe it's because I don't know the original tron story but even knowing legacy it was very confusing. I also never knew who was talking because everyone looks the same.

This book, probably as a ploy for more plot points, was loose on details of the story and actually created more plot opportunities than closed plot holes, and filled in details, between the original Tron, Tron: Uprising, and Tron: Legacy. More work needs to be done before the Tron story proves its original potential.

I'll be honest here, I adore Tron. Even though Legacy left me unfulfilled (and a tad disappointed). But Betrayal scratched the itch I had for some in-depth backstory that was lacking in Legacy. Though, I would recommend seeing Legacy first, to fully appreciate all the plot point reveals.
Overall, I enjoyed the art in Betrayal, and the writing was solid most of the time. I'm a big fan of Fabian Nicieza's anyway, so that should come as no surprise. I did think it felt rushed in places, and it wasn't always clear how much time had really passed between visits to the Grid, but overall, definitely worthwhile.

Didn't provide much additional story that wasn't already in TRON: Legacy, and the action sequences were a bit hard to parse.
