Looks beautiful... very much like the Echo issues of DD, though i hope there's more meat to the story.

Ha! Well, its hard to say anything negative about AWESOME work like Kabuki. The series really is like nothing else I've ever read. It's food for your mind and eyes.

Hi Allanpatbrowne,
I assure you that Kabuki is a completely story oriented book.
Even the nature of the art is a tool of the story.
Check out davidmack.net for a brief description of each of the volumes.
I recomend beginning with vol 1 KABUKI: Circle of Blood, or Vol 4 KABUKI: Metamorphosis (which is my favorite). The art is a complete servant to the story and you'll find it bursting to the seams with layers and dimensions to the story. |

I have to say that I have not read any Kabuki before I get my hands on this issue but the DD stories that I read I loved. I especially love the way the dialogue of the story interweaved into the art. I am really looking forward to this book and picking up some trades. _________________ Of all the things I've lost over time, I miss my mind the most. |

Thanks Emin,
I'm glad you liked the different storytelling approaches I used in Daredevil.
I try to make the story and art indistinguishable from each other. They really become one thing that cannot be sepparated or categorized. Even more so in the Kabuki books. I'd say check out the KABUKI: Metamorphosis trade for the best example of that. And it will probably be a good starter kabuki trade for you if you dig the Daredevil stuff.
And the new Kabuki series starts right where Meta leaves off.
If you get a chance to read it, please post some feedback here and let me know what you think.
Best,
David |

Am I gonna need any prior knowledge of the previous Kabuki books before I read the new series? _________________ "...you're so hip, you have trouble seeing your feet..." - Chynna Clugston-Major
