Excellent comic book mystery!, Mar 1 2005
By movieninja - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Green Candles: A Graphic Novel (Paperback)
There are so many subplots to this book that lend itself to the mystery and repressed memory, that it's scary how the writer juggled it. Some may say the art is average, but I think it's perfect for the story! The best Paradox Press book and it hasn't even been adapted into a film!
It may be tough to get into with the tales of Satanism, but you soon learn there's more to it than meets the eye!
Quite possibly one of the best comic books of the 1990s!

Disappointing, Nov 4 2002
By Kenneth French - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Green Candles: A Graphic Novel (Paperback)
I like Tom De Haven's work (his Derby Dugan trilogy is great) and was intrigued that this took place in my home town, Jersey City (where De Haven used to live). Though the illustrations captured the local color of JC, the plot is a mess. Any mystery that hinges on repressed memory as a major plot devise is going to have problems. It comes across as a stupid way to move things along. Surely a writer of De Haven's abilities could have come up with something better. This feels like he wrote it in an hour.
Listmania!
