Black Orchid by Neil Gaiman

2.0

---

It was ok. It was also trying too hard to be deep and meaningful and spiritual. The art was cool, the writing was cool, the story was...eh. Just eh. I was a bit bored with it and have read better work by Gaiman and seen better art with him too. I think part of the problem was that (for all its attempts at mysticism) Black Orchid, as a character, was a snooze. Whichever incarnation was front and center at the time, she was a dud. Gaiman is better then this.
