Dr. Spencer
Black, a controversial surgeon, is considered a prodigy until he begins
studying the unconventional. Operating on those born with deformities he comes
to the conclusion that creatures of mythology are actually the ancestors of
humans. He spends the rest of life experimenting in unthinkable ways to prove
his theory to the world.
My complaint
would have to be that there is very little text and I feel like I am missing
something. The plot is incredibly fascinating to me, which could explain why
the lack of text bothers me. Carnivals
have always held my interest and I think the lifestyle has an occult like
appeal to people. It’s definitely a
quick read and flows very well.
The artwork
is amazing. I do wish there would have been more to the story, but the pictures
make up for that fact somewhat. It’s nice to be able to see what you are
reading every once in awhile. I realize this will not work for everyone but I
do recommend it. The story is dark but
the artwork adds a little bit of whimsy for the imagination.
