Eén van de beste delen tot nu toe. Mijn recensie kan je hier lezen: http://nerdygeekyfanboy.com/recensie/...

Similar to what I said about the previous comic (issue 7). Fast paced but at least it focused on one aspect of the book (what was happening at King's Landing) instead of going all over the map. Still don't care for it though.

Nice illustrations and easy to read. The plot thickens and it is even lovely to read after you red the books of Game of thrones and seen the series.
I can't wait to read the next one.

Grade: A
“Distrusting Me was the wisest thing you’ve done since you got off your horse.”-Lord Littlefinger Baelish
From Ch. 25-27, Still continue the storyline from the Martin’s epic introduction of the pages to the comic screen with highlight ink and the charming color of characters, setting, and Flashback. I get to see the true images, if not, on this from the HBO Tv series that are the same but different art style. Now, we get to see the Perspective of Lord Figure in the North and his Bastard Boy in the Wall.
The Cover of Ned Stark discover the Unseen Boy who touch his Bull Helmet he made at the Armorer as the first find part of the crime clue is brilliant.
Ned speaks with Grand Maester Pycelle about Lord Jon Arryn’s final days. Then he finds her daughter Arya standing on one foot in the stairs as training to be a water dancer. Later, he is visited by Littlefinger who had found 4 of Lord Arryn’s Household In King’s Landing to find the answer.
-Focus of Ned’s Investigating on Lord Arryn’s death, Suspicion on Someone who have hidden something in King’s Landing and Question the Trust or Distrust to some Council And other residents.
While Training the other recruits, Jon Snow worry Sam from Ser Alliser Thorne’s command the other recruits neatens Sam. After he talks Sam about his life and his house, Jon convinces others to go easy on Sam.
-Jon defend a fighters and honest-smart overweight person, and make sure other boys are to be friend with Sam. Jon is really good care friend to Sam.
Ned and the Small Council discussing policing problem caused by the upcoming Hand’s tournament. After Jory Cassel (Captain of the Household Guard at Winterfell for House Stark) reports to Ned on interview with Jon Arryn’s Household: Brothel and Armorer visited by Lord Arryn And Stannis Baratheon. When Ned And Jory visit armorer themselves, he discover an apprentice named Gendry who very resembles to King Robert.
-Ned found Jon Arryn’s Information is the House Family History Book And the Bastard Boy of the King Baratheon, But for What Reason of his Death.
Action of Ned’s Hand is the medieval crime detective while doing the political stuff with Small Council in the capital city of the Seven Kingdom. Ned’s Bastard Son, Jon’s Act of Kindness is to protect and care Sam who is no fighter but a brain-smarter as the Brother.
Much like the previous GN adaptation, good version of the novel follow storyline, drawing in ink and color style of worldbuilding is amazing, and great character’s appearance. Shown the Flashback of Sam’s backstory shown what reason he went to the Wall is excellent. The Last Scene at the end of Vol. 8 is King Robert And Gendry are the same is that Ned Find the fact that the King father of Bastard child: Blue Eyes And Black Hair & Eyebrows is brilliant. Focus on Lord Ned Stark as the Hand of the King doing for Justice to his deceased father-Figure and Jon Snow as the Black Brother doing for Kind to his weaken friend is Absolutely Charming and Strength for House Stark.
