review:
'All Quiet on the Western Front' by Erich Maria Remarque with adaptation and art by Wayne Vansant is an adaptation of the famous novel that was sanctioned by the Remarque family.

This story is about World War I and told from a soldier on the German side. Paul Bäumer is filled with dreams of glory by his professor. He and his friends join up and head to the front lines. What Paul finds is hardly the glorious battle he thought, and as he slowly loses those around him, he sees the true horrors of war.

I found this to be a solid adaptation of the book. The art conveying people at times is a bit confusing, as characters can tend to look alike, but the color palette with it's grim colors is fitting for the story.

I was happy to review this title from Dead Reckoning, a new imprint from Naval Institute Press, and I look forward to other titles from this publisher. Thank you also to NetGalley for the chance to read this.
