review:
'Desert Star Volume 1' with story by Stephen Desberg and art by Enrico Marini is a graphic story of life in the Old West.
The main character, Matthew Montgomery, has an important job in Washington and a predictable life until his wife and daughter are savagely murdered. Now with nothing, he heads out West to find the person responsible for the murder and the clue left behind. His hunt takes him through rough towns and the untamed wild.
I liked this story, but in some ways it felt a bit cliche, plus it's got a bit of a cliffhanger ending. It was also a bit more graphic than I would have expected. The art is very good. Maybe the story is better going forward.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Europe Comics and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
