REVIEWS & SUMMARIES
Summary / AnnotationCOMMUNITY REVIEWS
Extremely disappointing submitted by josephwb on July 31, 2015, 9:41am Kevin Smith describes Mage as one of the top 3 graphic novels of all time. I couldn't disagree more. The art is amateurish. The dialogue is jilted. The plot is uninteresting. I kept hoping that some inner greatest would emerge, but that never happened.
A Must Read submitted by rweyler on July 13, 2021, 5:09pm A wonderful fantasy by Matt Wagner. Read with Vols. 2 and 3 to complete the story. This story has been around for quite a while and still entertains and amuses. Recommended. Watch out for the Grackleflints.
