5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for review of material, Dec 9 2009
By D. Frock "D Frog" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Frankenstein: the Graphic Novel: Original Text US ed (Paperback)
I am studying "Frankenstein" in a college Eng 1B class and our final paper is based on the book worth 30% of our grade. The importance of the material makes me want to reread the book but as I'm in a time crunch I cannot. I ordered this book and it has all the characters, no absences of scenes or absent plot points so this is great for the analytical approach I'm taking. We have to explicate the paper and I can use this book to pinpoint the pages in the book and find the quotes I will use. Plus this book has some extra small essays in the back that are of use in my thesis and outline. I would say this book also has the best artwork and translation of the three I bought from Amazon. This is a valuable addition to my studies and I recommend it to any person that needs a condensed version of the story. You can just look through the pages quickly and find the section from the pictures instead of reading anything. A great read for serious critical thinkers.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very good introduction to this classic!, Aug 4 2011
By Kurt A. Johnson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Frankenstein (Hardcover)
In a way, it seems somewhat pretentious to create a graphic novel based on so revered a classic as Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. Thankfully, this book does credit to the original, condensing the novel down, and yet bringing it to life with well-drawn characters. Thankfully, the creators of this book resisted the temptation to "spice up" the original, and stayed true to the story.

I found it to be an entertaining read. The story was condensed, and yet readable. I found the illustration work to be very good, being realistic and not cartoonish, with the sepia-like quality enhancing both the feeling of the story being long-ago and the feeling of horror and despair. Yeah, it's a very good graphic novel, and a very good introduction to this classic!

3.0 out of 5 stars From an English teacher, Oct 4 2009
By Michael Davis "Pengocyc" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Frankenstein: the Graphic Novel: Original Text US ed (Paperback)
As an English teacher, I'm always looking for means to show my students different ways to look at literature. My main intent to order this one was because it maintained the original text...which it does. Other than that it doesn't do much special. I've found some other graphic novel for other works that made some bold statements with THE IMAGES; this one doesn't...the graphics are pretty straight forward and concretely consistent. The most unique thing I can show with this one is how it pares down an entire chapter to one spread in the book. The artwork is nice, but doesn't leap off the page; and when it does leap of the page, it is a bit comical.
