review:
'Manga Classics: The Stories of Edgar Allan Poe' by Edgar Allan Poe and adapted by Stacy King is a series of manga adaptations of poplular stories and poems.

Included in the collection are The Tell Tale Heart, The Cask of Amontillado and The Raven among others. Every story features a different artist and I liked all the styles but my favorite was The Raven by pikomaro. The art is really pretty good for all of these chapters.

The adaptations are really good as well. I've seen graphic novel adaptations that aren't as complete. The Masque of the Red Death story is allowed time to simmer and build as are all of them.

It's another great adaptation in the Manga Classics line. I grew up with Classics Illustrated, and these adaptations are more complete.

I received a review copy of this manga from Udon Entertainment, Manga Classics, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this manga.
