Kong: King of Skull Island by Brad Strickland, Joe DeVito

2.0

It starts out really strong, and because I have a deep sentimental attachment to King Kong, it was really fun to revisit that world and see the mythology of Skull Island fleshed out and deepened. But the plot stalls out about halfway through, and the ending winds up with a lot of "here's what I learned" conversations. What starts out as an inventive adventure story becomes talky and obvious. Illustrations are fantastic.
