I read the first volume.(and my heart died) I think if it were it's own thing it'd be good. However, with Labyrinth as it's predecessor, it falls very short. I'd asked a lot of WHAT and WHYS when I read this. Tons of fans will be disappointed with this <BR/>(<B>**</B> Too much to just put off and say "some will be disappointed, but it happens."), however, many newcomers and some old fans may be fond of the story. <BR/><BR/>I believe it had potential, but as it warped the original essence of the movie too much, It is too hard for me to say I like it. <BR/>((Personally, I think it makes the Goblin King seem too powerless and different as compared to the movie.))<BR/><BR/>On the flip note, as stated, a lot of people don't mind or are fond of the change in essence, and like the “sequel”. ((If such things don't boggle you, it may be interesting reading.))<BR/><BR/><BR/>In short, if you are diehard about the world, plot, characters, and character relations from the movie, steer clear from this!!<BR/><BR/>If you are open to changing of the feel of the magic from the movie, it still has a bit, enjoy your "sequel". (Note: I said feel of the magic, not removal.)<BR/><BR/>I do like, however, that the art isn't bad. In my opinion: I'm happy it wasn't overkilled. <BR/><BR/>Also my opinion: I don't think I mind that it was about Toby, I mind that it just wasn't Labyrinth material. Where's the OOO and AAAh magic stuff?<BR/><BR/>ps: The movie will always rock, and did not need a sequel. But I will not get into that here. Happy reviews.<BR/>I'll stop here, or I could make a book of it.<BR/><BR/>As noted above:<BR/><B>**</B>((To Sequel Creators: Stop making excuses for yourselves and just accept that y’all could have done MUCH better and could have pleased more people. It doesn't mean that you did a bad job, just don't hang around in denial. You could have done better.))Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
