4 posts | 5 read | 1 to read
Everyone's favorite girl detective makes her graphic novel debut! An all-new series of full-color Nancy Drew graphic novels, with all-new comics stories based on the series by Carolyn Keene, starts right here! Join Nancy, along with Bess and George, as they search for missing student filmmakers and discover the deadly secret behind the local urban legend known as "The Demon of River Heights." Ages 8 to 12. Papercutz is the exciting new graphic novel publisher that's building a huge following among the next generation of comics fans. Even the most reluctant readers are becoming addicted to the Papercutz approach of giving classic characters a modern makeover! Each Papercutz graphic novel features comics stories drawn in the style of the popular Japanese comics known as manga, and beautifully rendered with state of the art color. While educators rave about the high quality of the Papercutz writing and artwork, readers 8 and up are simply enjoying the great adventures found in each fun-filled volume. Be sure to check out other Papercutz titles such as The Hardy Boys, Zorro and Totally Spies.

Mehso-so

I love Nancy Drew. I collect old editions, and I used to devour anything Nancy. So I thought it would be fun to pick up one of the graphic novels from the library. While I liked some of the updates (George is a tech whiz; Bess, while still a big flirt, has been credited with much more of a brain) there was definitely something lacking.

And Nancy Drew would NEVER run out of gas, TWICE?!?!

As you can see from my post 3 min ago I was very excited about this. However I am 22% in (my normal cut off point) and the characters are TERRIBLE and 1 dimensional. The whole story is based around text boxes and not the REASON WE HAVE THE MEDIUM. I was so excited too 😕

queerbookreader I was so pumped for these too!! And I read this one a few months ago and it was legit terrible I was so upset 8y
queerbookreader I totally have hope that a Nancy Drew graphic novel series can be done well but not the way these are. I'm not even touching the Hardy Boys ones because they look like the same style as these 8y
BookishMarginalia And by the way, what's with that cover? Is that supposed to be Nancy Drew? 😖 8y

maximoffs @lemonlime799 I HATED how much of the story was told through the boxes. I feel like those shouldn't be used for exposition, they should be used stylistically and rarely. Ugh it was terrible. 8y
maximoffs @BookishMarginalia it is 😞 8y
maximoffs @alanacristin I know!!! 8y
Carol I love ND but these graphic novels are not great. 🙁 8y
maximoffs @Carol most of the story was told through exposition boxes. That's not a comic tbh makes me sad 8y

Kind of boring. Not really charming like Nancy Drew books and the PC games are. I feel like this could have been done with more depth and seriousness to the story and characters, but it was super basic, which lost the point of Nancy Drew. Also, the art was super wonky. So. Prolly won't read the 2nd one I picked up too.
