Blacksad: They All Fall Down · Part One by Juanjo Guarnido, Juan Díaz Canales
4.0
Art was exceptional but story seemed muddy
This art...it is breathtaking. Luxurious in detail, specifically realistic in some places and wonderfully imaginary in others. The breadth of animal breeds is a delight in and of itself.
The story, on the other hand, was muddy and hard for me to follow. Whenever I have trouble following a complicated story I always try to be fair and acknowledge that maybe it was just me, and I wasn't putting the pieces together. Still, the story felt dull as a result.
4 stars for the incredible art and giving the story the benefit of the doubt.
