Any reader willing to stick with the book, soon discovers the beauty in the artwork too. It has been a while but finding this here i want to get them all over again and read read read. It shouldn't distract from the content of the words or the images in the frames, but this lettering The concept was very cool, but the execution. When you use weird lettering throughout to make your comic book look "cool", you'd better also make sure that it's "legible". I can just not say enough about this series of comics. He does as Absinthe asks him, but Absinthe betrays him and doesn't help Fiona, who succumbs to her disease. Of the years before his century-long sleep, he can only remember flashes, in which miss Fiona, a loving teacher, was the only person who ever cared for him.

Want to Read saving…. This made it a very exhausting read, hence the three stars. This book was pretty damn good. I really liked this here, steampunk the genre it self is cool, then give it a superhero comic style with art by one of my all time favs, Chris Bachalo's run on Generation X then Uncanny X-Men were some of the awesome things i loved, and his art here was strampunk of this world crazy.
He rips out Cole's actual heart and all goes dark for Cole.
Steam Punk: Manimatron
The comic had a really intricate layout and background. And Absinthe is a bit of joke.
Of the years before his century-long sleep, he can only remember flashes, in which miss Fiona, a loving teacher, was the only person who ever cared for him.
Plus everyone always speaks in these stream-of-consciousness type with colorful highlighted texts thingy in their word balloons. But that is a problem too.
Despite the early cancellation, Bachalo still has a desire to finish the series. A waste of time. One of my favorite comic book miniseries ever.

However I was often searching the pictures and flipping back pages to figure out what the hell was going on. Lists with This Book. The concept was very cool, but the execution.

But perseverance is richly rewarded by a grandiose, epic story and truly unique, gorgeous artwork. I liked what I could make out, but it was bachali tough that it took me right out of the story. Poor people are forced to live underground. Paperbackpages.
Refresh and try again. When you use weird lettering throughout to make your comic book steamupnk "cool", you'd better also make sure that it's "legible".
Steam Punk: Manimatron by Joe Kelly
The days of Zeppelins, perpetual motion machines and phantasmagoric machinery are beautifully rendered. Joe Kelly's non-linear storytelling and Bachalo's highly detailed, though possibly confusing, penciling style received little interest from the mainstream comic-reading public. Bchalo lettering shouldn't steal the show.
