Review:
I'll be damned if the creators of this book didn't make one hell of great comic out of YI SOON SHIN'S military experiences. Writer Onrie Kompan does a great job of taking a series of actual historical military engagements and crafting a compelling storyline out of them. In Kompan's hands, SHIN's exploits during this war are crafted with just the right amount of action, drama and character development. While I'm sure that the actual YI SOON SHIN's story is the stuff of legend in his native Korea, writer Kompan takes the fantastical parts of his myth and is able to ground them with elements of humanity. YI SOON SHIN the comic is a terrific example of comic book storytelling. The artwork in the book is very proficient, although I think that colorist Adriana De Los Santos does most of the heavy lifting as far as the visuals of the book are concerned. It's not that artist Giovanni Timpano does a bad job, but his art is overshadowed by the heavy airbrush aspect of De Los Santos's coloring technique. In any case, the comic itself is visually appealing and could stand proudly among some of the comic book art being produced by most of the major comic publishers today. YI SOON SHIN is an excellent read. It's something unique in today's comic book market and I can't imagine any discerning comic fan would be disappointed by it. It s a terrific achievement and should be sought out by readers looking for an epic storytelling experience. --Ain't It Cool News
