Reviews

La Fantomah could have been a really great graphic novel. The concept was great, but unfortunately the execution felt really rushed. Disappearing children and a vengeful spectre has a lot of potential, but the genesis of La Fantomah, and the entire plot with the antagonist was over in seconds and really needed a lot more development. The art style was fine, but most of the characters ended up looking exactly the same, so it really made it difficult to engage with the story. There was so much that wasn't discussed or explored that I found it a somewhat disappointing read.
