Prince of Cats is a retelling of Romeo and Juliet that focuses mainly on Tybalt.
The dialoged was in old English and because of that it was really hard to follow what was happening. I really loved the art though.
I think the writing was okay and the art was phenomenal.
I'm giving this a 3 out of 5 stars.

beforeviolets's review against another edition
It just got too visually violent for me and wasn't worth the read anymore.
But a really fascinating work, I loved the language!

This book is truly a piece of art created from the singular and vivid perspective of its creator.
This is a graphic novel that more than anything else seems to be about influence, and wearing your cultural influences on your sleeve. Wimberly takes 80s hip hop, cyber-punk neon lights, street art, the samurai films of Kurosawa and his contemporaries and, of course, Shakespeare... then blends them together in an artistic love letter to the overlooked characters of a classic.
I read this graphic novel as an ebook, but will definitely be investing in a paper copy to get a closer look at the excellent art and colour palette.
