3.5 "I've been thinking a lot about what it means to be human." When requesting Prototype 2 off NetGalley, I admit I knew nothing of it. All I wanted was a good graphic novel, a easy read. However, Prototype 2 was everything but. Set right after a virus breakout, Prototype 2 is divided into three parts: The Anchor, The Survivors and The Labyrinth. Everything is fine, except for a few over the top expressions and extremely small text that hurts my poor eyes. Prototype 2 is based off the video game...more"I've been thinking a lot about what it means to be human." When requesting Prototype 2 off NetGalley, I admit I knew nothing of it. All I wanted was a good graphic novel, a easy read. However, Prototype 2 was everything but. Set right after a virus breakout, Prototype 2 is divided into three parts: The Anchor, The Survivors and The Labyrinth. Everything is fine, except for a few over the top expressions and extremely small text that hurts my poor eyes. Prototype 2 is based off the video game, so for readers who are unfamiliar with the game adaptation or haven't at least read the first Prototype comic and enjoyed it, I don't think you'll get much from this edition. But, the art and the whole "you-better-run-or-those-creepy-red-things-will-eat-you" Prototype 2 had going on was pretty badass.   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Review also found at: Goodreads Contact Kaede: kimberlyho75@yahoo.com
