Steve's Reviews > The Enfield Gang Massacre

Uh, gee, this was on multiple lists of best graphic novels of the year, so I figured, why not? ... and ... it was OK, but ... and maybe I missed something, but I gotta admit, I'm not sure why so many people loved this.

Cool concept, and I found the art perfectly appropriate to the subject matter, and I really enjoyed the textual story (or narrative or prose) that was interspersed throughout the more conventional graphic novel, but ... but ... but ... alas ... I don't know what I was expecting or hoping for ... or what I missed ... but, ultimately, it just didn't resonate with me. Interesting? Sure. But ... but ...

One of the great things about reading is that not everything has to be for everybody. So I'm just going to assume I wasn't the target audience for this one and move on to something else.
