This was a fun and very quick read! For fans of Edward Scissorhands that have wondered if that little girl that was lying in bed, listening to her grandmother’s tale, ever went up to the castle on her own… Well, now you have your answer!
Let’s dive in!
My Thoughts on Edward Scissorhands Volume 1: Parts Unknown by Kate Leth, illustrated by Drew Rausch
First of all, I have to say that I LOVED that this graphic novel picked up with a quote right from the very end of the movie! What a lovely touch that was! It actually made me a little teary.
Overall, the plot was simple and straightforward. I found it interesting, but it didn’t totally captivate me. I enjoyed the characters and I am definitely looking forward to learning more about them in the next volume.
The artwork has a lovely strangeness to it, and the color palette created the perfect tone for each of the panels!
I would definitely recommend this to any Edward Scissorhands fan!
Though I would caution readers that this collection lives in the teen section, so just keep that in mind when it comes to tone, characters, and other such things.
