Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys: The Big Lie #1
by Anthony Del Col
I absolutely loved Nancy Drew as a kid; while I was never a big fan of The Hardy Boys, I always enjoyed their crossover stories. Naturally, when I saw this ARC on netgalley, I was pretty eager to check it out, and once I heard that it was an edgy, modern take on the old gang, I thought for sure this would be a delightful trip down memory lane for me.
Sadly, I was mistaken. The artwork in this is muddy, dull, and dated; while a fan of classic comics may enjoy it, it wasn't for me in the slightest. The storyline was boring and I had a hard time believing any of it or attaching myself to any of the characters. I'd say that there's a chance I've just outgrown Nancy Drew, but just as likely, I think this graphic novel was a bust for me.
Thank you to NetGalley and Dynamite for providing me with this ARC in exchange for an honest review!
