A review by tomhill
The Fade Out by Ed Brubaker

3.0

I'm a fan of old Hollywood as well as the novels of Raymond Chandler, so I was excited to read this graphic novel. I was somewhat disappointed. I really like the atmospheric artwork, which effectively captures both the glamour and seediness of 1940s Hollywood. Of course, Ed Brubaker's story has something to do with that as well. It was good, not great, and for me, not super engaging until towards the end. I liked The Fade Out, but my expectations were too high.
