A review by theartolater
Return of the Dapper Men by Jim McCann
4.0
3 for the story, 5 for the art.
A fantasy/fairy tale of sorts, the story is perhaps too esoteric and fantastical to even bother trying to recap. Where this book excels is the absolutely gorgeous art and format, which brings this world to life in a way few graphic efforts do.
I just ultimately wish the story was better. I'm sure many people love this sort of world, but it overall failed to grab me and the result was a nice read, but nothing as special as what I thought I was getting when I picked this up.
I won't not recommend it, but just know it might not be what you're looking for.
