Santhosh Guru reviewed A History of Violence by John Wagner
Review of 'A History of Violence' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
This is a topical read for me. Vijay’s new movie, Leo, directed by Lokesh is getting released this week. The talk is that the movie is inspired from this graphic novel. So I was curious about this as all people around me are excited about this movie.
This is a simple but punchy revenge story. Quite gory and a short novel. It follows the story of an ordinary person running a coffee shop getting into an extraordinary situation, how he handles it, what happens to his family and what is his mysterious past. Anything more will be a spoiler. The illustrations are vivid and reminded me of Sin City. I felt it was gorgeous in depicting the gory and violence.
If you are a graphic novel fan and want to enjoy a nice thrilling revenge saga, give it a shot, you may like it.
