Hi hello! If youre down here in the comics and you havent read the webcomic, scroll up and fix that inmediately. This is hands down the BEST adaptation of jekyll and hyde I have ever read. The art and storytelling are both phenomenal, each page takes my breath away. It has so much drama, slow burn, exploration on good and evil, and the gothic vibes are immaculate. The amount of care and love put into it is palpable, and it is full of motifs and foreshadowing that continues to surprise me. I have been reading this comic for years and it has never let me down, it just contines to improve. Midori is a seriously talented storyteller and artist. Give this a read!!!
I have a thirst
That I cannot deprive
Never have I
Felt so alive!
There is no battle
I couldn't survive—
Feeling like this—
Feeling alive!
Like the moon, an enigma
Lost and alone in the night
Damned by some heavenly stigma
But blazing with light!
( eheheheheheheeheheheheehehhe for anyone that knows what this is cudos and one one piece of cheesecake with cherry jam )
Tapas and webtoon links lead to the wrong places!
Looking forward to archive binging :^)
Oopsie! Fixed that now, thanks for letting me know!
