Very gory graphics of a classic. Older teens would love it. It was better than the Tom Cruise flick. Of course, what could be worse than that movie? The only good thing was Dakota Fanning.
Well drawn, but the script felt vague and a little shallow. Perhaps I'd have more of an impression if I'd ever read the original story, but all I know is various cartoon and genre fiction homages to Wells' story.
much better than the previous comic version i read. more detail and better artwork, though it still doesn't emphasise some key moments in the book.
and why are the Martians saying alooo?

A very short graphic novel version of the original
Had an intro of the new jersey freak out which was debunked
Very nostalgic for those who have read the original, and a great start for younger kids reading heavier/older literature

Content Warnings
Graphic: Death, Genocide, Suicidal thoughts, Murder, War, Injury/Injury detail
Style of the graphics fits the style of the original book well...gritty, blocky colors. Not how I pictured the martians, though.
It really was just okay, nothing special, read the actually book, and let your imagination do better.

This months selection for the other book club I'm in. I probably wouldn't have finished it except we lost our power for 2 nights and my kindle has a light.
A good - if somewhat brisk - version of the classic novel which works as an excellent prelude for the story Edginton and D’Israeli are still continuing in Scarlet Traces
This was a very fast read, but a nice visual companion to the novel. While the artwork didn't blow me away and the story was chopped up to fit nicely into a short graphic novel version, I still found it enjoyable.
