Average Rating:
 Rating: - Most beautiful comicI have to admit that I'm not really into comics, but The Crow is far beyond compare. Most beautiful and touching love story combined with wonderful illustrations and a great selection of poems. Rough but at the same time sensitive, it's a book that always moves me. "It's forever, now" Rating: - A study in tragic loveBefore you cast this graphic novel aside as some kind of self-pitying, whining, goth-validating piece of rubbish, think again. Anyone who has known what it is like to experience grief will identify so totally with this book it's unreal, while those who don't will be speechless with sorrow. Never once self-indulgent, James O'Barr has put so much soul into this work it will overwhelm you, while the dexterity with which he mixes different mediums to ehance the emotive power of the pages is truly what makes it a work of art. If you find it cliched, you must be skimming - what at first may appear to be a watery moping Tarantino-esque revenge story will soon have you hooked. In short, I was incredibly impressed, both with ... Read More: Rating: - Five Stars Ain't Enough =pThis was the first Graphic Novel i ever bought, and i'm glad i did. This is THE graphic novel that everyone must own, everyone =p It's truly amazing. I was actually spechless after i finished it... Very emotional, beautiful creation. And the drawing is superb too =p IT's such a shame that most people have only seen the film with Brandon Lee. And it's disgusting that bands such as Aiden and H.I.M. have decided to dress up in that style, undoubtley with no knowledge of the book. Bastards. So read this shizz and be one step ahead of the scene kids ;) Rating: - Flicker of a movie is nothing to the turn of a page.The beauty of this graphic novel is not in each separate element. You cannot fully enjoy it in it’s entirety unless you look, read, imagine and feel every separate piece of emotion that falls into place. J. O’Barr tells the tragic story of his character, Eric Draven, with more passion than Jane Austin in Little Women. Far from a story of women finding growing up a struggle, Eric finds death a struggle and seeks revenge purely out of love. This story would seem dull and boring by modern standards but, as I said, if looking upon it with an emotive and pin pointing eye, you will find that there is more to this story that is first seen. All the poetry and use of colour and the story itself merge together to create ... Read More: Rating: - justice for victimsThis book is unique, I have never read anything which conveys emotions with such power. A beautiful story about love, vengence and the ultimate struggle between good and evil. This story makes me sad because what happens to Eric Draven and his fiance happens all the time to good people -their lives are destroyed by someone else. James O'Barr knows the pain of losing a loved one and he has drawn that pain onto every page of the book in the form of the Crow. Don't expect happy endings -there aren't any... |
