Graphic Novel

The Third book of the Hatter M series delivers and continues the series in a satisfactory manner. A highly imaginative graphic novel with excellent artwork, text, and inspiring quotes make for a thoughtful read, something that other graphic novels may lack. The power of wonder and imagination are constantly stressed, while the plot moves quickly and with lots of action.
As we follow Hatter Madigan through Earth in search for Alyss, lost princess of Wonderland, we come a...more

Even though everyone who deserved it got their happy end in ArchEnemy, the third volume of "The Looking Glass War" series, there are still tales left untold. Here is the third volume chronicling the adventures Hatter Madigan, Royal Bodyguard to Princess Alyss of Wonderland, as he searches our reality for his lost charge.

In The Looking Glass War (the first novel of the trilogy) Madigan and Alyss took a trip through the Pool of Tears to escape Alyss's murderous Aunt Redd, and Madigan and his char...more

When I started reading this, I didn't like it much. It seemed a little forced, and in the beginning the background of the story seemed very uncomfortably unclear for me.

I must note that by the end of this book, I was reaching for the other two I had checked out after it- glad that the series had continued. I loved the 'Millinary man' Madigan, and I love his quest... really interesting once you get into it- and I got very attached to him as a character. Good stuff!

I loved this volume of Hatter M. It's my favorite of the first three. It is so much more personal for Hatter in this book. We learn more about brother Dalton and how he disappeared! Also, how the princesses (Guinevere and Redd) are captured when Dalton was in charge when Queen Theodora ruled Wonderland. I love all the stuff with Realm, the White Imagination Shaman lady. And Hallows Bend with Smith is fantastic. It's like Hatter needed these spiritual pick-me-ups to keep fighting the good fight t...more

Wonderful art as always and always finding a way to connect to the real world.

Hatter's adventures continue as does his search for Alyss. This time he's in Washington D.C., where he meets agents of the "Bureau of Illuminated Forces," who work for President Lincoln, studying paranormal "Imagination" mysteries. The plot is one part supernatural (zombie warriors created by Black Imagination!), one part steampunk (flying by dirigible to the Grand Canyon!), and if it weren't for the weird illustrations I'd give it more stars. I just don't like this artist's style, unfortunately...more

Starting to get too hard to follow

The "cameo" was it were by President Abraham Lincoln was fantastic. The nature quotes were excellent. I wish I had time to write them all down, but again, this was read in a rush while hanging out in a bookstore.

The backstory of Madigan idolizing and following his older brother around was fascinating. Through the novels we learned about Madigan's familial life as an adult, but not much about his childhood and that peek made me more relatable.

I don’t really have anything to add to this review. Just like the first two volumes: loved the storyline, didn’t really like the art. This volume did have a few intriguing bits of information as to Hatter’s past and what happened when he was younger. We see his brief interactions with Redd when she was a teen and then after she took over Wonderland. Supposedly there was going to be a fourth volume, but it never appeared.

I love these graphic novels. Specially if you read the Looking Glass Wars. I actually went to Borders today after work to read it haha. Can't wait for Volume 4.

The art drives me to give this graphic novel a four. The language itself needed to be edited a bit.

Something about the art is really turning me off of this series.
