review:
'Kriss: The Gift of Wrath' by Ted Naifeh with art by Warren Wucinich is a story about a young man who doesn't fit in and the help he finds when he needs it.
Kriss doesn't look like the people in his village. He was found when he was a baby, and his pale skin makes him stand out. He also lives with an abusive father figure. The only person who gets him is Anja, the blacksmith's daughter. Together, they discover the mythic figures of Kriss' country. Kriss hears them talk to him, and they help fill him with rage when he needs strength, but that rage has a downside.
I'm a fan of Ted Naifeh's particularly moody stories, and this one was just as good. Warren Wucinich's art is great. I like his goth take on Kriss as well as the design of the ancestors.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Oni Press and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
