A review by avalinahsbooks
Graphic Novel - Metropolis – Volume 2 by G.B. Royer

4.0

How I read this: Free ebook copy received from the publisher

What an incredibly strange, and yet interesting, artistic thing I’ve just read. I have no idea how I should review it now, even. It’s a graphic novel based on a silent movie, but it’s also so much more.

Metropolis is a classic story that we still understand today, but it is also presented in a form we don’t really consume anymore. Which was why it was such a different, interesting read. It’s certainly nothing like anything I’ve ever read! Silent film is a strange medium, unfamiliar to us now. I’m sure I would probably have some trouble watching the movie itself, but after reading this? I definitely want to. Because this graphic novel somehow has the feel of a silent movie?

I thank the publisher for giving me a free copy of the ebook in exchange to my honest review. This has not affected my opinion.
