Art isn’t too bad I just wish that Nico, Percy, and Thalia all didn’t look the same.

This one was way to word-y, which made it difficult to follow because all the characters looked the same. 90% of the time I couldn’t figure out if it was Percy or Thalia speaking and don’t let me get started on when they were talking to each other and I couldn’t figure out who was who.

Just bad.

Even for a quick recap it's barely passable :/

Turning the Percy Jackson books into comic books is such a great idea. It really is. But what's not a great idea is leaving out so much information that the books don't make any sense.

I would not recommend these comics for anyone who hasn't already read the books.

Not my fav, but I enjoyed it nevertheless.

3 things I liked :)
1. Bianca and Nico - my cuties, also I cried. <3
2. Zoe (puppy eyes emoji) (PS. I missed her)
3. Percy obvi (I had to)

3 things I didn't like :(
1. They look so old, like what the hell. -  hear me out, Most of the characters are literally like 13 but somehow they all look like they are in their mid-thirties. it's crazy. 
2. Also I feel like the scenes lacked the feeling from the books - cause essentially this book has so many really sad scenes and a few people even
die
and for some reason I just couldn't feel it. (even though I genuinely was bawling from the book)
3. Not really my type of art style.

3/5 Solid.

I love this story but the graphic novel version skips too much to feel cohesive

There's just always something missing with these for my brain, for some reason. I understand there are limitations to the format, but there's some pretty big visual things throughout this one that just weren't there for some reason and I'm not into that. That said, the major points are all here, but the biggest reason I'm docking points is for the art this time around. Everything looks oddly muddled, compared to the other two by the artists, and it makes things difficult to follow. That said, it's fine. Not my favourite, but I'll give points for hitting the big plot points.
