A review by germancho
Berlin Book One: City of Stones by Jason Lutes

5.0

Amazing read. It doesn't start out great, but it gets solid around Chapter 3. I have to admit that it is a little depressing to know beforehand that things are only going to get worse and worse for everybody in the story (except for the you-kno-whos). While beautifully told and poignantly drawn (specially the architecture), I am left with the small complaint that Mr. Lutes's female protagonists are not as nicely drawn as the male are: the girls look either like big boys or like old men. My bitching notwithstanding, this is easily one of my favorite graphic novels ever.
