Sleeping Beauties, Vol. 1 by Owen King, Stephen King
2.0
Thank you to NetGalley and IDW Publishing for an advanced digital copy.
This was a tough one. The story is great but is incredibly difficult to follow. To be fair, I have not read the novel that this graphic novel is based. That may be where the issue lies. However, I don’t think I should need to read the novel to understand this since they are separate entities. This graphic novel switches back and forth between characters so much and is rather confusing.
The illustrations are phenomenal and I would love to see the full-color version when this is released. I was really impressed by that.
I think I might revisit this graphic novel after reading the original source material since it is a very interesting concept. However, this was just too confusing to follow and I can’t recommend it unless you’ve read the book.
