Lamentation by Cullen Bunn

5.0

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review!

I actually surprised by how much I liked this graphic novel! It managed to instantly draw me in and kept me hooked from start to finish. I read it all in one sitting, that's how much I liked it! It's fast-paced and keeps you guessing right up until the end. The way the story kept changing from the present to fully immersing you into the play, and leaving you wondering which one was real, was captivating. The way it's written feels like an episode out of the Twilight Zone, and I mean that in the best possible way. This graphic novel would make an excellent movie or perhaps a mini-series. The art style is classic American comic, but oddly I really loved it. The artist really nailed both modern and gothic horror styles, while also nailing subtle horror.
