Synopsis:
A lonely, metal-obsessed teen sends a heartfelt song to his missing beloved, only to find out that his
music has traveled to the beyond, and re-broadcast to the entire city.
Only his best friend knows that he is really the mysterious rock god and anonymous legend known as "Doomboy."
Review:
I got this ebook from Netgalley in return of an honest review.
Another graphic novel to add to my collection. And this one I will definitely have to get my hands on the physical copy.
I always feel sad, because there isn't much one can say about a graphic novel of this sort, but I will do my best to convey my thoughts.
All throughout the book the atmosphere and plot line were so extraordinary and melancholic, sad and entertaining, depressing and lighthearted, all at once.
I reckon what made this work really well was the way the kind of supernatural elements were portrayed. The whole idea and mystic characters were very well done and the drawings were the most beautiful, intense ones so far, of all of the graphic novels I have read. They completely immersed me in the story and almost made me feel like I was really there, feeling the wind in my hair and the sand on my feet, listening to the pain in Doomboy's songs.
It was an amazing read for a stormy day and I completely recommend it.
