Critique de Carnaval

The Mask T4 Carnaval offers two well-crafted stories that will surely satisfy any fan of the genre. Although the narrative is classic for a police drama, the writers take the time to develop each character with care, allowing the reader to connect with their motivations and actions. The first story written by Rich Edden is paired with artist Goran Delic's outstanding artwork, which is both eerie and cartoonish. Delic's unique style produces stunning visuals that perfectly capture the lively and colorful backdrop of New Orleans. The second story, written by Bob Fingerman, is a solid case written in the style of David Fincher’s Seven, with a madman staging his revenge crimes. The artwork by Sibin depicts each crime scene through slightly more digitalized but still high-quality artwork. Both stories have fluid layouts and an abundance of great dialogues, making it an effortless read. However, the stories do not necessarily revolutionize the comic book genre, but that does not detract from the overall enjoyment of reading them. Furthermore, this volume features original and gorgeous covers by Kyle Hotz, which add an additional level of enjoyment to the anthology. The Mask T4 Carnaval is a fantastic and fun read that can be enjoyed independently from the previous volumes of the series. Overall, it is a very enjoyable read that deserves a place in any comic book collection.
