The Last of Us: American Dreams #1 by Neil Druckmann, Rachelle Rosenberg, Faith Erin Hicks
3.0
Reviewing all 4 volumes over here. Contains some mild spoilers if you haven't played The Last of Us yet.
The comic really doesn't stand well on its own if you haven't played the game that is. The story's a prequel set before the events of the game where we get to see Ellie befriending her eventual best friend Riley for the first time. To my disappointment, we don't get to witness the events leading up to Ellie's and Riley's infection. Instead we are treated to a story where the duo go around being rebellious, seriously lacking in the emotional punch that is so ever present in the game. Overall, its not a bad book with some really good artwork. Its just not a must read for TLoU fans at the end of the day.
