Title: Thrilling... And yes, mesmerizing!
Review: Dave McKean gotta be one of the most original artists of this decade & Cages is (some of) the evidence. Apart from being a brilliant comic book artist, with a style that is TRULY his own, he proves in Cages that his creative talents go even beyond that : Beautiful photos, amazing paintings... You really gotta see it yrself. I recommend this graphic novel to EVERYBODY, & I especially recommend it to (the very narrowminded) people who doesn't believe that comics/graphic stories can reach the same hights as books, films & other artforms. Cages is just one of the masterpieces proving them wrong. The story is brilliant too. It proves that McKean is as good a writer as an artist/illustrator, even though he mainly IS an artist. (not that a writer CAN'T be an artist... I mean... eh) The story is quite complex too, so I won't go into details. I can't recommend Cages enough - ................- It's worth every penny!......
