A review by opheliapo
Dorfler by Jeremy Baum

3.0

I really wanted to love this, because certain aspects intrigued me to an extent that only really good graphic novels can. But every upside had an equally frustrating downside. Baum's art style is unique but underdeveloped, his dialogue is descriptive, but too pretentious and wordy. Where he excels in creating an interweaving, dream-like chain of events, his characters are too flat not to create unneeded confusion.
I am intrigued to see what heights Baum will take his style to within the next 5-6 years, but until then, I don't think I will be able to read any more of his works without noticing their juvenile qualities.
