Bandit's Reviews > The Incal, Vol. 1: The Black Incal

A distinctly Euro-style comic featuring a ragtag detective Difool’s adventures (or maybe more like stumbles) in a post-apocalyptic world following a discovery of an ancient artifact with mysterious powers. A sort of surreal read comparing to all the American comics I’ve been going through – the people don’t quite look right, the creatures look funky, the world seems strange, but then again, it’s meant to, the color combinations are different as is the storytelling itself – there’s a distinctly foreign thing going on here. Which is nice for diversity of reading, though not sure overall this book was quite right for me. It was amusing and just different enough to be worth a read. Not sure if I’d read more, but not necessarily opposed to it either. So, something like a middle of the road read, I suppose. And a very quick one.
