The Supernaturalist GN

[Merv Simestra]

Hey, guys!

I just found an e-mail with this in my inbox this afternoon: The Supernaturalist Graphic Novel. It's apparently coming out the same day as Artemis Fowl: The Last Guardian. I'm really excited for it because I love The Supernaturalist. So, what do you guys think?

Yeah I am looking foward to it as well. Have had the Supernaturalist on my bookshelf since it came out, been looking foward to the sequel as well.

I got the graphic novel yesterday (I ordered it after TLG yet it came before TLG?), I didn't really like the art style at first but it sort of grew on me after a while. It was pretty good.

Dang, I still haven't gotten my copy. My mom told me I have to buy it, and the only money I have is in giftcards. I'm glad to hear it looks cool though.

Ehh, I took one look at the art style and decided against it. That artist grated on me the whole time I was reading the graphic novels for AF 1 and 2. (Speaking of which, does there happen to be a graphic novel coming out for TEC?)

[Eltil]

Yes, in fact I believe TEC graphic novel is coming out the end of this year, definately gonna pick that up when it comes out, it will bring us one step closer to getting one of TOD which is my favorite AF book, at least until TLG came out. I myself wasn't nearly as put off by the artwork of the graphic novels even though I didn't quite understand the alternate character designs, I mean why does Holly have long brown hair or why did they give Artemis brown eyes. Like I said though, I liked the overall presentation and the stylized look of the fairies, in particular the colored sclera, that is when you can see it, the characters in the graphic novels have a terrible case of Youngbloods disease.

I would like to point out that while they gave Artemis brown eyes, they gave Holly blue eyes. I'm guessing as long as they got the eyes right at the end of TLC, they figured it was okay to have the eye color switched.

I like the graphic novels mostly because I'm a fangirl and I also like seeing how the artists portray the scenes from the books. Which is also why I really want to get The Supernaturalist Graphic Novel. There were a few scenes that I'd really like to see how they were portrayed.
