The Twilight Man: Rod Serling and the Birth of Television by Koren Shadmi
4.0
'The Twilight Man: Rod Serling and the Birth of Television' with words and art by Koren Shadmi is a biography about one of the creative folks in early television.
The framing story has Rod Serling on a flight sitting next to an attractive young woman. She is curious about his life, so he talks about his time in World War II. Then he talks about writing scripts for early television. He was successful as an early writer, but there were setbacks along the way as well. Eventually, that led him to creating The Twilight Zone.
I liked this non-fiction story. The art was really good and the way the story unfolded was also. There are some nice touches that are reminiscent of The Twilight Zone along the way.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Life Drawn, Humanoids, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
