A review by iffer
Ichiro by Ryan Inzana

3.0

This Eisner Award-nominated graphic novel has gorgeous artwork and coloring that takes the reader along. Although the story was interesting enough, and I liked learning about Japanese mythology and Shinto tales, the story had a somewhat simple, didactic message about war, and the characters, though likeable, weren't complex. I think that Ichiro is definitely worth the read, especially since it's a quick one, for the gorgeous artwork and adept graphic storytelling, but I wish that there were more story for the gifted Inzana to tell.
