I don't fully understand everything that happened, but it's an interesting fantastical world. The black-and-white artwork was nice enough and included very eye-catching red accents, though I couldn't figure out if there was a set pattern to how the red was used. I'm unsure if I'm interested enough to pick up the second book.

This was a lot of fun, with a richly imagined world and wonderful art. Very cinematic in execution, with little narration or inner monologue—I think this would also make a great animated series. And I always love a book with a map in the front.

Raul the Third has such specific artistic gifts. I could tell right away he illustrated this graphic novel. I loved the Latin American aspects of this Frankenstein reimagining graphic novel. All the Latinx love here!
