Good story that made me eager for the next full-length novel. Love that Harry Dresden. I actually liked the original plot summary (found at the end of the book) more, but the final version they went with was still fine.

NEW CONTENT!

It's interesting seeing introductions over and over again. I know the books do the same, but for some reason it feels different in a comic. Perhaps because I'm reading them relatively quickly?

Dresden!



Well, nothing's on fire?

Bob!



I enjoy Bob.



There's something of an irony here, especially since I'm right around [b:Changes|6585201|Changes (The Dresden Files, #12)|Jim Butcher|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1304027244l/6585201._SY75_.jpg|6778696] in the main series. Ghoul Goblin was published 3 years after Changes, but takes place several books before.



It's a concept Dresden has made a number of times... but the wording just feels wrong. Too 'fancy' for Dresden. It stuck out.

It is interesting to see more about both ghouls and goblins. We have seen both in the mainline series (although goblins don't really figure in much until some in [b:Changes|6585201|Changes (The Dresden Files, #12)|Jim Butcher|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1304027244l/6585201._SY75_.jpg|6778696] and more in [b:Skin Game|19486421|Skin Game (The Dresden Files, #15)|Jim Butcher|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1387236318l/19486421._SX50_.jpg|23811929]), but it was an interesting concept.

Overall, I think Dresden in the comic format Just Works(tm) and I'm glad to see it. It's not quite as deep as a novel, but I'll not say no to having both! ( )

I have posted my full review on my blog, The Itinerant Librarian.

To be honest, my only problem with this book was that I kept getting startled when I saw Harry Dresden because in my mind he always looks as he did on the short-lived TV show. Apparently I imprinted.

This was typical Dresden Files stuff, fighting the good fight, protecting the innocent from the denizens of the nevernever, and always that painful knife in the heart at least once during the story.

Are there more of these? I should read them if there are.

This was so good! The story was amazing and the artwork was really well executed ( )
