This was only my second graphic novel ever, so my opinion may not be worth much. That said, I'm going to give it to you anyway.

I liked this tale, I found it imaginative and interesting. I know there is more backstory to Mr. D' Amour because I've read most every door stopper written by Mr. Barker. Problem being I read them so long ago, I don't remember much about this character. The good news is you don't have to remember! This is a completely new story, with Mr. D' Amour in a completely new environment, so you don't need to know much going in.

I thought the artwork was excellent and engaging. Since this graphic novel came from a Humble Bundle, it wasn't subject to the Kindle panel limitations I've run into in the past. I could stretch out the page, (after double tapping it), so that I could linger on the beautiful, detailed views of hell. I had a total blast with this!

I would recommend Hellraiser: The Dark Watch to fans of Clive Barker. I may be a novice when it comes to graphic novels, but I know what I like and I liked this. A lot.

Another thanks goes out to my friend Kate, who just opened a whole new world to me with her generous gift. Thank you, Kate!

This was part of a Humble Bundle some time ago and that's basically why I picked it up even though I was completely unfamiliar with the Hellraiser franchise.

At the beginning it was very confusing since I didn't know who everyone was and what was happening, however I was able to immediately see it was a very interesting story. I certainly wanted to know more about it. It has been said that it brings quite a few changes to the existing Hellraiser universe, about which I'm not able to judge of course, but either way I liked it a lot. I found this to be one of the most engaging graphic novels I've read to date. ( )
