The fact that Huddleston did all the art in this is spectacular. Tons of abstract linework that reminds me of Sienkiewicz or Ashley Wood, but then he switches to painting, and then to half tones and crackles of classic comic books. This is just phenomenal from an art standpoint.
However, the story was good but not something I would say comes close to Hickman's best. It's closer to Pax Romana than it is to East of West, but I still had a good time reading it. I like world-building, but this book was overly excessive in this regard and it came at the cost of story/character arcs.
We're used to your content by now, so it often goes unnoticed how well you articulate yourself and how well you present each book that's in front of you. Thank you.
Video suggestion: do a list of the weirdest and most experimental graphic novels. Maybe Decorum would be a candidate for such a list.
This looks so good...I actually bought this at my local shop on a whim and I guess I will be reading this next. Some of the art reminds me of Ashley Wood on Automatic Kafka.
Mike Huddleston was in art studio in school with Ashley wood and Jim Mahfood
Didn't really care about this book until I watched an overview several days ago. Hickman is usually great as well, I'm happy to be getting a copy instead of missing out completely!
Hickman's name and one look at the internal artwork were at it took to sell me on this; so glad I picked it up
I am going totally blind on this book, i love hickmans style and writing. Gonna have some edible on hand while reading this
Been on the fence and waiting for an Omar review on it. Happy you made this video
This is a fantastic series. I got these in single issues and the delay for the last issue killed me. Waiting for this to arrive so I can reread it in oversized format.
I was lost too. Quite lost. The artwork kept me going though. All in all the entire experience was just..... cool. Typically, we combine art and prose to judge the work. This is the first time that I also factored graphic design, white space, and page layout as equally important. The story was above average. I liked it. Loved the characters. But more than anything I just enjoyed thumbing through it several times after I was finished. It’s just cool
Nice one Omar..just ordered it..arriving tomorrow..!!
It was the art that made me pre order this book months back,the story is great too. There will be more of this,and hopefully another over sized hard cover like this for it.
I think there will definitely be a continuation to the story it's even mentioned at the end a little bit. Loved the artwork. Just a small tad bit f info the name of one of our Protagonist comes from an Indian origin Neha( pronounced as "Nay-ha"). I had no idea how Mike can change his art style so so much.
The Black Monday Murders needs an OHC!!!
Thanks Omar for this review!
Looks great, didn't know anything about it but now its ordered :) Thx Omar :)
My copy arrived a few days ago along with god hates astronauts. Can't wait to dive in and read them 👍
My copy is arriving on Monday!
Alongside a bunch of other volumes, can't wait!
Never knew of this , I will be getting this now, thanks
I like it, just because of the art. I have the individual issues and the Omnibus. This reminds me a lot of house of x. I feel like this is the cosmic world building he wanted to do with Marvel.
I collected the whole series. Hickman is top tier man
Damn. Now I need this book 😅
Looks great.
Picked up the DCBS variant.
Book is so cool.
I have this in single issues and as I'm fairly new to the comics it was my first Hickman and I was little lost but it all made sense after all (and I'm cool with that approach). If I was nitpicking I would say that finale was little rushed but not the less good read
You should check out a book called Butcher, Baker, the righteous maker. It's the same artist and it's freakin' awesome
I have that book on my shelf. Also the same artist drew the Strain comic series which is a really good read as well.
Thanks for reviewing this Omar, just fantastic art in this book! I'm guessing you already know about it, but if not, next month June 24-26 is the 40th Anniversary HeroesCon in Charlotte, NC. The guest list this year is really incredible - Chris Claremont, Roy Thomas, John Romita Jr, Steranko, Hickman, Mike Grell, Rick Leonardi, Jim Starlin, Klaus Janson, Charles Vess, Chris Bachalo - that's just a few of my favorites but there are many more. Would love to see you record an episode at the con, or just visit with the family, it is really one of the best conventions in the country and centered on comics creators. Cheers!
Can you do a New Reader and Old Reader of Decorum ( just a suggestion btw)
I will be happy to add it to the list.
@@NearMintCondition AWESOME!
Book looks beautiful, but I’m not sure if I’ll pick it up yet. Thanks Omar for giving us your opinion on this book!
Question: is this a glue or sewn binding kind of format? Your channel rocks 🥰
Thank you and it’s sewn.
@@NearMintCondition Thanks 😉😉😉
Did it drop already???
It came out a few weeks ago.
@@vincentimbesi3947 my lcs is trippin
Don’t tell me I shouldn’t have dropped this book☹️
Sepia is brown. Yes, a “reddish” brown,… but nevertheless brown. Not red….
Thank you.
Uuuuh sneak peak at the new OHC for X-force :p
This book is not my Jam 😵💫 but This Video is my Jam 😁 Thanks Uncanny Omar 👍💜
