A gorgeously illustrated take on the classic tale. I've seen both the Claude Reins film and the 2020 version, and while its aesthetics are clearly based on the older film, it's far more tense like the newer one. This really brings to light how terrifying it'd be for an invisible man with no morals to run loose in a town

It was decent and reminded me of Frankenstein. Had a lot of similar points and reactions to persecution but were less interesting. The villain is not sympathetic and is very one-dimensional.

Really liked the illustrations. the story was compelling but the motives of him were very unclear, I may need to read the normal prose version to find that out.

Never read the original and I am only familiar with movie adaptations but I absolutely loved this graphic novel version of an H.G. Wells classic.
