It brings me into a fancy and exciting world, adventure together with those amazing people, especially with powerful Witcher. It is good for my nighttime reading.
Pretty good. When I reserved these I really thought they were novels and not graphic novels. Yes the novels are here now. I will say the graphic novels were pretty enjoyable!
Like volume one, the writing and art are excellent. Some individual panels are so nice, that I'd frame and hang them as art in the house. (Particularly some of the ones with the ship.)
Fox Children adds well to Witcher lore. The writers as always have a really good grasp of Geralt and who he is as a person, and they are also very adept at writing their own characters and stories into a well established existing verse. These comics are as good and sometimes better than Andrzej Sapkowski's own writing.
Future comic book ties in (such as Batman cough cough) could learn from how well done these are.
I've finally taken this series back up after a long time, partly because I'm playing Witcher 3 right now and partly because I've always loved this world and its characters and I felt like it. This is the second issue of Volume 2, Fox Children and takes up where issue one left off- I liked the illustrations. They were just as grim as the story and liked how the vixen's illusions were broken from time to time. But not much happens in this issue and hence 3 stars is all it is going to get.
