A review by cosmicblob
Das Dorf der Teufel by Ivar Leon Menger, John Beckmann
2.0
Plot ★★★☆☆
Art ★☆☆☆☆
Characters ★★★☆☆
Average: 2.3
This didn't make me want to gauge my eyes out like the first one did but that's also just about it.
The art did not improve at all since the first graphic novel and still has the same rough and shaggy look to it. The characters also still look way too young, even the adults. Some of the character designs closely resembled those of characters from the first graphic novel, which didn't exactly add to the experience.
The case was slightly more interesting this time around but still felt quite rushed and once I had finished the graphic novel, I was under the impression that I had just read an unfinished script instead of a final draft.
You can judge the overall quality of the graphic novel by the fact that I was personally more interested in whether Morton would be refunded for the Rolls Royce than in the actual conclusion of the case.
