This is a great way to reread the series. A lot of little things make more sense now. I hope they do the entire series! It's nice to have the author so involved as well. Loved it.

Based off the first novel in the series, Storm Front is not that strong of a Dresden novel in the fist place. Still a good comic that can be finished in one sitting

I read (or listened to) this novel ([b:Storm Front|47212|Storm Front (The Dresden Files, #1)|Jim Butcher|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1419456275s/47212.jpg|1137060]) a couple of years ago and was excited to re-live it in graphic novel form. It’s a little weird that this novel was broken into two graphic novels, but they broke it up nicely to have good endings and beginnings. The drawings were fantastic, and the story was told just as well as the novel told it. I really liked the phonetic words used to describe sounds (especially the thunder and lightning – they were cool!). My favorite part of this book was at the very end; we see a prequel chapter of how Dresden meets Murphy. It was a great small story and I really enjoyed it.

This is the first part of the graphic novel adaptation of Jim Butcher’s first book. Fun to read and see how the artist and Jim worked to bring his characters to life. Gave new insight on some favorite characters like Susan Rodriguez, Morgan, and John Marcone. For sure helps with casting who I think would play some of these roles. Good pacing and nothing too grim even though there is violence in this book. Even includes a small prequel story.
