Heroes: Graphic novels Volume 1: v. 1 by Chuck Kim and Aron Eli Coleite
Review: Bought this ages ago and loved it. At the time I hadn't read many graphic novels but this one was really good and worked well with the earlier series. Good artwork and stories.
Review:
For who love Heroes, this graphic's book is necessary!
They contents a high quality hq's in an excellent paper.
Review: This is an excellent purchase for the die hard heroes fans. Although the graphic novel revisits stories from season 1 which people are (most likely) already aware of, it also brings in new characters which especially makes the buy worthwhile.
Review: this is a must have for any heroes fan. the artwork however could have been better, but the story line is very well done.
Review: Ok first up two things ...
1 - I enjoy Heroes & am enjoying the 2nd Series but wouldn't class it as an all-out "favourite" show of mine. It's cool, it's well-produced & it's interesting but it's never quite hooked me in like 24 or Lost.
2 - I'm not a big comic-book buff. I devoured comics as a kid & I sometimes pick up compilations of tie-in's that relate to favourite films/tv shows of mine but I'm certainly no expert
With the above in mind I REALLY enjoyed this Heroes Collection. It's a large compendium of short stories featuring major & minor characters from the tv show but although mirrors the time-line of Series 1, the stories are unique & original. This is not a simple re-telling in graphic form of the first series.
The stories are cool and I couldn't fail to be impressed how easily they sit alongside the show. Sometimes tie-in products fall way-short of expectations due to the fact that they simply aren't a patch on the movie or show they feature. This isn't the case with this collection although MAYBE this is partially down to the fact that the show isn't always expertly written ?
The thing that impressed me most about this Graphic Novel is how well it's produced. I picked it up for under £10 & did so as I thought it was great value for money considering the classy cover & brilliantly laid-out contents. The illustrations throughout the book are all full colour and superbly inked which really appealed to me. Far more impressive than many other comic books I've picked up recently.
Overall if you're a fan of the show I'd recommend this item. Not only is it an interesting, lengthy read but it's also something I'll happily keep in my book collection as one of my more impressively produced books.
