review 1: Woah, was für eine miese Stelle, um den Band zu beenden! Das war am Ende nun wirklich spannend, ich hatte eigentlich gar nicht damit gerechnet, dass Luke es noch schaffen würde, sich zu befreien. Wahnsinn, und wer ist das hinter Kait? Doch nicht etwa Mark? Ich wäre ja unheimlich gespannt darauf, ihn endlich sehen zu können.Ein sehr spannungsgeladener Teil, auch wenn er für meinen Geschmack am Anfang etwas ZU eklig war. Dieser tote Mensch mit den heraushängenden Gedärmen, in den ganzen ersten Kapiteln - hui. Ich hätte vorher nicht so viel essen sollen. Sonst aber wieder sehr spannend, unterhaltsam und toll.(Vor allem die Sache mit den Hühnern und den "Früchten" diese legen.)
review 2: The story of the Freakangels goes into darker territory in the third... more book when one of the survivors they rescued in the second book is found murdered in the style of Jack the Ripper. Also Luke is caught raping one of the survivors and the Freakangels discuss whether executing him is the right way to go. That is, until Mark shows up and all Hell breaks loose…Warren Ellis continues to impress with this amazing story of a dozen psychic young people with incredible powers living in and rebuilding a post-apocalyptic Whitechapel – an apocalypse they seemingly brought about. The voices of the characters all sound genuine and Ellis’s dialogue brings them all to life as if they were real people. Paul Duffield’s artwork is always brilliant in these books. Large panels, sometimes 2 to a page, show a wonderfully rendered backdrop to the manga-esque characters. At times it feels like watching Ghibli film, the actions are drawn so intuitively and fluidly. I love these characters and this world and even when there’s not a lot going on and it’s simply Karl (the Gardener) showing ordinary people how to irrigate land or Arkady (the super powerful psychic/savant) playing with chickens, it’s still a mesmerising read. Throw in the excellent storylines that builds to a crescendo by the end of the book and you’ve got a masterwork of modern comics. Only, make sure you have Vol 4 handy as Vol 3 ends on fantastic note which’ll make you want to start reading the next book immediately. less
