DROWNTOWN by Robbie Morrison, art by Jim Murray

This is a graphic novel by Robbie Morrison (JUDGE DREDD, SPIDERMAN, DANTÉ, WHITE DEATH) and artist Jim Murray (HOLOCAUST 12, BATMAN DEMON). Although I really like where I thought the story was going, I'm not sure about some of the characters. They come across as too juvenile for an adult themed graphic novel. There's love, intrigue and mystery, and I believe the childlike circumstances could easily be wiped out. I can't say too much about it because it's a very early view. But I like where it's going if they get rid of the Ratatouille storyline.
