Legends of the Dark Crystal, Vol. 1: The Garthim Wars by Heidi Arnhold, Max Kim, Sarah Tangney, Tim Beedle, Barbara Randall Kesel

3.0

This was honestly not as good as I wanted it to be. My expectations were pretty high because the graphic novels in this universe so far have been excellent. I've continued to say that the plot in the graphic novels does not repeat the plot of the movie, but rather adds twists and brings in new elements, but this manga definitely regurgitated the plot of the original movie 100%, thus making it pretty lackluster. The art was also weird for me, and I couldn't connect with any of the characters. I'd recommend only reading this if you're deep in the Dark Crystal universe like I am currently. (Save me?)
