Dorian Gray
Der junge Dorian Gray ist ein Mann von betörend gutem Aussehen und einnehmendem Charakter. Als er seinem Freund Basil für ein Porträt Modell sitzt, lernt er Lord Henry kennen, der einerseits hochgebildet, aber andererseits ein ausgemachter Dandy ist. Henrys Ausführungen über seine Theorie eines neuen, moralbefreiten Hedonismus fallen bei Dorian auf fruchtbaren Boden, und indem er sein Porträt betrachtet, wird ihm seine eigene Schönheit zum ersten Mal bewusst. Und zugleich ihre Vergänglichkeit. Würde doch bloß dieses Bild an seiner Stelle altern…
»Das Bildnis des Dorian Gray« ist der einzige Roman von Oscar Wilde und gilt als zentraler Text der Epoche zum Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts, die als Fin de Siècle bezeichnet wird. Dementsprechend sind Dekadenz und Moralität seine Hauptthemen, aber wie nebenbei arbeitet Wilde auch kunsttheoretische Ansätze, psychologische Themen und literarische Bezüge mit ein. Für seine Graphic Novel »Dorian Gray« reduziert Enrique Corominas den Roman auf seine Essenz und bringt diese mit expressionistischem Strich und intensiver Koloration zum Strahlen.

A graphic novel that is completely faithful to the style of the original narration.
The vital pulse that impregnates the story beats underneath the decadent paganism that invokes pleasure and debauchery in equal terms.
Wilde reminds us that selfish hedonism inevitably leads to the most terrible solitude and Enrique Corominas' art evokes the degradation of Dorian intrinsically by creating an atmosphere that recreates the darkest side of the Victorian Era.
The drawings are beautiful and repulsive, like Dorian.
Poetry, horror and inmortality fused in hues of expert strokes, images that will remain imprinted in my retina forever.
Definitely a treat for all the senses, and the perfect gift from a friend who knows me too well.

El relato trata sobre un artista, Basil Hallward, que queda totalmente impresionado por la belleza de un joven llamado Dorian, y de cómo éste se deja llevar por las influencias algo hedonistas a las que le somete Lord Henry, un amigo del pintor. Basil le ha pintado un cuadro a Dorian y cuando Lord Henry le comenta a este que su belleza no perdurará en el tiempo, el joven se da cuenta de que el desea vivir siempre como ha sido retratado en el cuadro. Hace un juramento en el que es el propio cuadro quién envejece y no él. Así se entrega a una espiral de hedonismo y decadencia, escándalos y vicios, conservando siempre su juvenil apariencia mientras el cuadro se va degradando. Adaptación del relato El retrato de Dorian Gray de Oscar Wilde por el maravilloso ilustrador Enrique Corominas.
Es la crónica de como la corrupción termina aniquilando a uno mismo por dentro. El deleite visual al que nos manda Corominas es abrumador. Personajes perfectamente estilizados a la época dandy victoriana, una atmósfera inmersiva y unas imágenes cautivadoras. Es el propio Dorian quién en forma de monologo nos va narrando como ha llegado a la situación actual. Así vamos viendo su evolución psicológica de una forma tanto visual como narrativa. Algo a lo que ayuda el color, que pasa de lo más vivaz a ser oscuro y taciturno. Gran adaptación.

Après avoir lu l'original et cette adaptation graphique, je peux dire sans me tromper que c'est une excellente adaptation ! En effet, on ne perd rien malgré les inévitables coupes et l'atmosphère ainsi que les caractères des personnages sont parfaitement rendus. Je trouvais dommage de ne pas mieux "voir" la dépravation du personnage principal, mais en vérité dans le roman c'est à peine suggéré par des paroles rapportées de personnages secondaires ! (donc frustrant).
Au final, si l'original vous fait peur, vous rebute un peu, vous pouvez vous tourner vers cette interprétation très fidèle qui vous délivrera tout aussi bien ce texte, en conservant sa poésie et sa cruauté.

Thank you to Titan Comics and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
A fantastic adaptation of the beloved gothic classic, I enjoyed this more than the original novel. The artist made some great visual choices, with the hedonistic life of Dorian vividly brought to life. I feel like this captured the spirit of the book in a very accessible way.
Victorian London is depicted colourfully, but with a sense of grime at the edges. I enjoyed reading this quite a bit.

Die Graphic Novel ist künstlerisch mega schön und hat die Geschichte sehr gut ins neue Format übertragen! Einziges Problem für mich ist die einzige weibliche Figur Sibyl Vane, wieso muss sie ständig nackt sein? (Rhetorische Frage)

Primera lectura del año, mi primer cómic después de un tiempo.
La adaptación de Corominas es un deleite visual, lo que hace que de primeras ya merezca una buena ojeada. Por diversos motivos a pesar de lo atrayente del concepto no he llegado a leer nunca la obra original, pero puedo decir que he apreciado mucho la carga filosófica y la capacidad de condensar algo tan potente en tan poco espacio.
Quizá la una pega que le saco (para mi gusto personal de lectora) es que, precisamente por el tipo de narrativa que es, el texto me resulta a veces un poco denso y floreado. Es algo lógico en la obra, pero entiendo que puede echar para atrás.
Una lectura muy recomendable para amantes del cómic, la literatura, o simplemente de las buenas imágenes.

This was such a beautifully dark and gothic graphic novel telling the classic story of The Picture of Dorian Grey. It stuck to the novel, giving a brief yet accurate depiction of the story readers may already know, but this time told through macabre and Tim Burton-esque artwork. I have really liked the story since reading it a few years ago, and I would say fans of the book will surely adore this graphic novel, it's captivating, haunting and so whimsically pretty- Dorian was captured perfectly!
4/5 🌟

Corominasova strip adaptacija Doriana Graya je nešto prekrasno. Crteži i palete boja mijenjaju se i prelijevaju ovisno o dijelovima koje je podijelio u 4 čina. Scenarij je također dobro prilagođen ovom formatu i nije izgubio na smislu. Autor je naveo da je proučavao mnoga područja viktorijanskog doba (od arhitekture, dnevnih novina do društvenog života) i sve se to vidi u određenim detaljima koji upadaju u oko pri čitanju.

I wasn't a fan of the artwork, I found it a bit to whishy washy.
The story was ok, I think I expected a more dramatic ending with the comic showing Dorian growing old but it was left in mystery, which didn't satisfy me.
Thanks Netgally and Titan for my copy

Es genial! No sólo una muy fiel adaptación de la historia original, sino también un deleite para los ojos!
Es la primera vez que me encuentro con el trabajo de Corominas y debo decir que cada página es una obra de arte. Quedé maravillada con el diseño de cada personaje.
Super recomendado!

I came across some pages for this years and years and years ago and had to wait (impatiently) to be able to purchase it. The book isn't available in English but, that said:
1) It's a graphic novel so even if you can't read French, you can at least follow along, and there's not huge walls of text to have to translate, as it's mostly dialog so you can kind of pick your way through.
2) The art alone is worth it, and even if you can't read it, it's still a beautiful concept portfolio from start to finish
3) I assume if you've made it to something as niche as a visually lush, foreign language adaptation of Dorian Gray you are probably familiar enough with the story to follow along.
4) Much more interesting way to brush up on some French than certain language learning apps because that service doesn't offer Decadent Gothic literature.
Enrique's art is simply exquisite, done in murky peacock-tone watercolor (except where the color palette veers jarringly, which is a kind of horror and/or viewpoint device I hadn't previously considered) that captures the decaying ambiance of the world in which Dorian Gray finds himself. The progression of the portrait is unsettling but invites closer examination of all sorts of hidden details. There's all sorts of subtle textures throughout the book to delight any aesthete's senses. The character design is wonderful and there's even a little Easter egg of Wilde himself. In addition to the comic itself, there's a wealth of standalone illustrations to peruse.

Gostei de ler esta adaptação de um dos livros mais conhecidos de finais do século XIX. Obviamente que não substitui o livro que lhe deu origem, mas é uma boa maneira de tomar contacto com ele, ou ainda melhor, de o recordar... e aguçar o apetite de o voltar a ler!
Review of advance copy received from Indie Reviewers
Dorian Gray
Author: Oscar Wilde
Artist: Enrique Corominas
Published 2026 Titan Books
So graphic novels have a natural duality.
Art can initially catch the attention, and here artist Enrique Corominas has created a lusciously painted book. Some of the panels are seriously ‘wall-worthy’ they are that nice.
If you pick this one up and flip through the pages you will be drawn in based on the art.
As for the story, well Corominas has recreated a classic from a notable author, so one knows the core work is outstanding.
As noted on the Titan website this book is about the corruption of innocence.
“How easy it is for innocence to be corrupted. This is the crux of the story of Dorian Gray, a young handsome man from London who gets seduced by the hedonism of the upper class and the ultra-wealthy,” details the site.
“When eccentric artist Basil Hallward paints Dorian Gray, Basil and his wealthy friends are encapsulated with his beauty. Lord Wotton, a hedonistic aristocrat and one of Basil’s friends, introduces Dorian to a life of luxury and debauchery. A life without consequence.”
From there it’s a slippery slope to oblivion.
The Picture of Dorian Gray is an 1890 philosophical fiction and Gothic horror novel by Irish author Oscar Wilde. A shorter novella-length version was published in the July 1890 issue of the American periodical Lippincott's Monthly Magazine, while the novel-length version was published in April 1891.
While Wilde penned the core story more than a century ago, and Corominas kept the story as a period piece, the lesson here has an obvious relevancy today as well.
Overall, with the beautiful art and the classic story, this one does harken back to the ‘Classic Illustrated’ tales of my youth, albeit for a mature audience given its darker themes.
A fine read indeed.

Review of advance copy received from NetGalley
A quite decent look at the Oscar Wilde novel, in graphic novel form that (apparently) has several nods to paintings of the time. Overall it shows the piece to have a balance that ages it somewhat – the painting that absorbs all the changes and all the sins a hedonistic life endures is there, but we never get a full grasp on just how sinful Dorian is. Yes, an actress friend besotted with him proves to be less of a performer than anyone thought and he leaves her, and yes he ends up a wrong 'un, but there's little of the in-between – the slow realisation he has carte blanche and that his dandyish looks will remain unsullied. Mind you, Hetty is not here either, among several tweaks made to the piece – but this does seem to include the mood cut out of the original by Wilde's magazine editor; certainly you can't read these pages without seeing the gay feelings on them.
Said pages are attractive, rendered in watercoloured style, and while liking the Dutch angle to disguise its wordiness, it makes for a decent portrayal of the piece. It doesn't quite have the oomph to shoulder this into the same category as Jekyll and Hyde, or any of the various other Fausts, but I don't think that oomph was there initially. So this comes as a pretty faithful adaptation, that I don't see Wildeans crying into their tea over. As for comics fans, it will not thoroughly disappoint, but may give too much that feels unfortunately bloodless. More sin, please!
A recommendation, but also a mere three and a half stars.

My first read of the year!!! I picked it up before going to sleep on the first night of the year, and it was a good start!!!
First of all, this is a really good adaptation!!! This is something I've missed with some of the latest graphic novel adaptations I read, this one has such a good balance with text, it relies mostly on dialogue, with some other small bits of text, exploring Dorian's mind and some weirder concepts.
Secondly, the book also restructures the story, making it shorter and more compact, picking up all the important bits - from the author's note you learn that he followed the earliest versions of the original, before it was edited into book form. You get an introduction from Dorian himself, and then you meet all the important characters and pulls you into this story!!
Now thirdly, I have to go into the art... which wasn't my favorite style - it's a bit too dark (and too cloudy if that makes sense...) - and I'll admit it does fit with the darkness of the story itself, it just isn't my favorite thing. Now, on the other hand, I absolutely love using the art on the chapter pages to see the portrait itself and the wasting and corruption of it all!!! It adds so much!!!
This was an excellent book!!! It just wasn't for me, but even then it's a very high 3 stars!!! It's one of the best graphic novel adaptations I've read, and I'll be recommending it, I'll just suggest you take a look at the art first!! :D

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me this e-ARC to review.
This isn't a bad adaptation of the book but it does add a few things that I don't specifically recall from the book and of course doesn't have everything in it from the original source. We don't get any inner thoughts from Dorian but we did get some third person narration as the story continued about Dorian which really emphasised the feeling of watching a story from a distance for me.
It is a definitely a stylised art that will not be for everyone which is shown on the cover but I really loved the colours and the style for some of the characters. I wasn't the biggest fan of how Dorian was drawn but considering how beautiful of a man he is supposed to be, how can one portray that in a visual format.
I think this graphic novel would be best read (and appreciated) in a physical medium rather than digital so the art can really pop and so the font is a bit easier to read (it's still very readable, some fonts can be a bit harder for me to read digitally).

A short but stunning adaption of the gothic classic, The Picture of Dorian Gray. Enrique Corominas' artwork is so beautiful to the point I didn't even need a story to go with it, some of the panels were so striking. However I felt he not only captured the original novel but made this adaption completely unique.
I love that the story and the artwork really leans into the debauchery, yet there are almost sinister touches throughout. I especially loved the progression of the portrait for each chapter title.
A must read for those that love visually impressive graphic novels, or want a new spin on an already beloved story.

Πολύ εντυπωσιακή απόδοση σε comic, αν και με έκανε να συνειδητοποιήσω πόσο κουραστικός μπορεί να γίνει ο Όσκαρ Ουάιλντ όταν πέφτει στην κουνελότρυπα της "φιλοσοφίας ως αφήγημα". Όλα αυτά που παραθέτει και υποστηρίζει μέσω του Ντόριαν Γκρέι και ειδικότερα μέσω του Λόρδου Χένρι είναι η αντίληψη των πλουσίων για τον κόσμο, εκείνων που βαριούνται τόσο θανατερά την ύπαρξή τους από την έλλειψη αναγκών ώστε "δημιουργούν" καινούργιες. Χαρακτηριστικό της αποικιοκρατικής Αγγλίας, βέβαια, οπότε είχε εμφανιστεί το φαινόμενο της "παθολογικής ανίας" των Βρετανών που λυμαίνονταν τον υπόλοιπο πλανήτη.
Ως μόνο πραγματικό μειονέκτημα θα σημείωνα το μέγεθος της έκδοσης, το οποίο δεν χωράει ούτε σε ένα εύλογα μεγάλο ράφι βιβλιοθήκης.

merezco un pellizco porque aún no leo este clásico, pero decidí comenzar con esta novela gráfica. resultado: tarde más de seis meses y me dio un ascoooo, pero es muy hermosa visualmente.
la historia (supongo) fue recortada a los elementos más importantes con un dibujo escalofriante y digno de la trama, al inicio de cada "capítulo" me estremecia porque el diseño del retrato me dio TANTAS ÑAÑARAS, ni que te digo del apartado en que Dorian cae a los pecados, o el final, de verdad, que locura.
Desconozco que tan cercano es al libro original, sin embargo lo recomiendo, solo ten en cuenta que es muy explícito, así que si eres de estómago sensible piensalo un poquito.

Kendisinin de dediği gibi; sanat, sanat içindir! Dorian'ın yükselişi ve sert düşüşünü okuyoruz. Oscar Wilde'ın arzuladığı ama yaşayamadığı hayatı kitabına dökerek bir tür günah çıkarıyor. Kitap (bu çizgi romanıydı) aşırı kimi zaman sadist kimi zamanda zevk için -hedonist- zevk unsurlarını yüzümüze vuruyor. Kimileri Marques de Sade'a çok cephe alır ama Oscar'a nedense kimse bir şey demez. Evliyken erkekler dahil birçok kişiyle gönül eğlendiren, gençlere karşı tutkulu bir bakışı ve arzusu olan kişiydi ve bunu kitabında net bir şekilde de belirtmiştir. Çizgi romanın Victoryan havasını beğendim. Çizer İspanyolmuş. Okumak isteyen olursa gönderirim. Türkiye'de basımı yok.

Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde has always been a rather difficult novel to adapt. Other than a couple of fixed plot points, Dorian's shenanigans were always left to the imagination.
Here, Corominas stays very faithful to the novel while adding a few original touches to shake things up a little...in more ways than one.
The artwork was delightful to look at, and while it was a short read, it was an excellent one.
Recommended for anyone who is a fan of Wilde's classic.
With thanks to Titan Comics for the ARC.

Siento que no lo puedo puntuar como se merece, porque al haver leeido la novela y haver visto la pelicula, me parece un comic normalito para pasar una tarde, sinceramente yo recomiendo la pelicula del 2009 me encanta, se que es un poco distinta a la novela pero me gusta mas, para mi el poco canvio que hay es para bien.

Es imposible hacerle justicia al original de Oscar Wilde, pero Corominas ha conseguido captar ese contraste entre belleza y decadencia que caracteriza la obra.
Me ha faltado ver representadas algunas partes de la obra en su recta final, como la última relación sentimental del protagonista, y en general se me ha hecho muy corto.
Recomendado para cualquier amante de El retrato bde Dorian Gray.

Me gusto muchísimo.
El retrato de Dorian Gray siempre va a tener un lugar muy presente en mi memoria y en mi persona.
Esta novela gráfica, me maravilló, la ilustración es magnífica y aunque siento que hay partes que faltan para sentir más esa esencia del libro original, no deja de ser muy bonito y fácil de leer.
