Hier kommt jetzt keine wirkliche Rezension, weil die Graphic Novel mich wirklich total enttäuscht hat.
Ich habe das Buch mal vor Jahren gelesen und wenn ich das nicht getan hätte, dann hätte die Story hier wirklich null Sinn für mich ergeben. Selbst jetzt und obwohl ich Band 1 der Graphic Novel Reihe ebenfalls gelesen habe, macht vieles keinen Sinn für mich. Die Story wird völlig zerhackt dargestellt und man versteht kaum wer hier wer ist und warum er wie handelt.
Manchmal kann ja wenigstens ein genialer Zeichenstil das ganze rausreißen aber das tat es hier auch nicht. Es gab zwar einige schöne Zeichnungen, vor allem die Landschaft betreffend aber ansonsten waren sie eher schlecht. Gerade die Mimik macht bei Graphic Novels viel aus und das wurde hier denkbar schlecht dargestellt. Für mich war es wirklich eine Katastrophe und ich frage mich warum mir Band 1 so gut gefallen hat? Gab es vielleicht einen Zeichnerwechsel? Leider war ich so enttäuscht, dass ich nicht einmal die Energie aufbringe dies nachzuforschen.

I’m pretty disappointed in this book. I went into reading it high from the first book and this story fell flat for me.

I loved this book. Yes, the artwork took some getting used to and it obviously didn't match the picture in my head I had of the characters, but I still really, really, enjoyed it. It was a fun quick read that was true to the original content. The colors were vibrant and easy to see and read. 5 out of 5 stars. I can't wait to read more.

This is the graphic novel adaption of the second (and my least favorite) book in the Artemis Fowl series. I haven't read the series in a while, so the book was a pleasant reminder of one of my favorite middle-school series. The images are full-color, beautiful, and almost 3D, but sometimes they bothered me. For example, Holly's haircut and LARGE ears have bothered me in both graphic novels so far. Also, Opal's appearance was rather different that I had pictured. Fans of the series will enjoy seeing their favorite scenes drawn out, and hopefully new fans will get to enjoy the story. Sadly, I cannot provide a front-flap or back cover summary because I had to return the book to the library.

Artemis Fowl: The Arctic Incident (Graphic novel #2).

Artemis and Holly are back together again, this time on the same side. Artemis agrees to help the LEP discover who is trading with the goblins, but only if they agree to help him rescue his father, who is being held for ransom by the Russian mafia.

Artemis' adventures transfer very well to the graphic format. Can't wait for #3!

I didn't enjoy this one as much as I did the book.

I read Artemis Fowl well over 10 years ago and picked up a Graphic Novel a few weeks ago, OMG still as good as I remember. I do want the novels again though.
