review:
'The Art of Plants vs. Zombies: A Visual Retrospec Book' is an art book with a tongue and cheek element, which it should have. After all, this is art from a game about plants fighting back against a zombie invasion of a back yard (among other locations).
The zombies narrate the book, and they are vocal about how much they hate the plants. Most of the art is of the zombies, but the plant art is represented. Also, all of the games that have been published are represented, including the ones from the upcoming Plants vs. Zombies sequel, with time travelling zombies. There are a number of rare sketches, as well as a picture of the banner that the popular PopCap zombies left on top of the Space Needle in Seattle.
It's a really fun and addictive game, and that's in large part due to the really fun and silly art. It's fun to revisit all the familiar zombies (disco zombie, anyone?), and see a sneak peek of what's ahead.
I was given a review copy of this graphic novel by Diamond Book Distributors and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
