Ilustration Concering Books The Crow (The Crow (Kitchen Sink Press))

I read a review within the very walls of this site that stated that this novel deserved no more that 2 stars. The reasoning, it seems, is that all of the characters, other than "the crow", are card board and underdeveloped.

I respect people's opinion. And, if I were to judge this book against the greats of literature, or even the greats of Graphic novels, I might have to agree. The story is violently stupid, and stupidly violent. The characters for the most part are underdeveloped stereotypes. This certainly is not Shakespear. Or, Hawthorne. Or,(fill-in-the-blank).

But all art, in my opinion, must first be judged against itself. This story, told in graphic novel format, is not an attempt at classical literature. It is barely even a story. It is revenge. It is heart-ache. This story is a thesis on one man's descent into grief. It is a pictorial study of loss and the inability to see the good when so consumed by agony that one cannot fathom ever experiencing joy again. All of us have felt this reckless torment, where everyday the sun refused to shine, and most of us have clawed our way back to normalcy, replacing grief with acceptance and have moved on. We forget that pain. That pain is too woeful. This story is a reminder of that painful depth. It is a black mirror to our sunny dispositions.

In that, this story, presented in graphic novel format, accomplishes exactly what was intended. Graphic novels are not written to be cool. They are written to be honest, just like all other forms of art.

(Recommended Pandora station for this book: Wu-Tang Clan) If you're interested in reading this book don't pay attention to any review that compares it to the movie. The book should stand alone as a separate piece of work. Due to major plot changes and the creative motivation behind "The Crow". I read this when it first came out in 93'. I remember it blew my teenaged mind. My buddy and I couldn't wait for the next issue to come out! We were pulled in by the intensity of the story and the

Two graphic novels in one night. Both about someone returning from the dead to take revenge on a rape and murder. wtf?! I pick up three books randomly and i seem to have stumbled across the dark side of this graphic world.This was just plan grim. Dark, dirty and just pure violence and tortured souls. THe author has a very very dark place he can call on to write this story, because there was nothing here at all to enjoy. I could imagine wallowing in the depths of dispair and becoming depressed

The first and probably the best of the Crow comics. The art is great, very moody and gritty in black and white. The storyline is good as well, but sometimes tends to meander and get a little existential. The movie did a good job of bringing the story to its core, which is a revenge story where The Crow comes back from the dead and avenges the death of his fiancee and himself. I love the mythology of the Crow bringing the spirit back from the dead to take care of unfinished business as well. The

Well, I've been meaning to read this book for a long time now...I finally got around to doing it. Yeah, the movie was something I grew up with and was very fond of, and I still am. I remember watching it over and over again, I even had a The Crow movie poster hanging on my bedroom wall. It was one of my favorite movies growing up and I still appreciate it. I was happy to see that the first page was dedicated to the memory of Brandon Lee. Little differences here and there between the movie and

Having seen the 1994 cult classic starring the late Brandon Lee in his last role, I wanted to check out the source material of The Crow, written and drawn by James O'Barr who has stated the origins of what is his very first book is based on a tragedy from his life.With its hard boiled revenge story and black-and-white illustrations of bloody violence, at its hear the book is really a tragic love story of Eric longing to be reunited with the love of his life, whilst hunting down their killers

[10/4/19 just read this again while listening to NIN's The Downward Spiral and actually accidentally timed it out PERFECTLY to finish both at the same time. 11/10 would recommend new level of edgy depressed 90s bullshit lol]Every year around Halloween I reread this comic [and rewatch the movie] and every year I just sit around for weeks afterward trying to write a review that will actually do it justice but alas I am just not that great with words. It is just one of the most haunting,
