This GN was MUCH better than The Sea of Monsters! Besides a few spots, I felt the story had a much nicer flow. I don’t think I have it in me to dislike anything Percy Jackson related. yelling, I did not dislike the graphic novel. And the Grover/Tyson cuteness.ĭespite my. So, why still 3 stars? Because it’s still The Battle of the Labyrinth, one of my favorite Percy Jackson stories and at least it includes some of Percy‘s most badass moments. It’s very messy and some of the characters look downright unpleasant, especially poor Annabeth. The artwork is also not that compelling this time around. Compare that to the graphic novel adaptation of The Lost Hero which almost includes the entire story (and I think the book is longer).

They chopped one of the best books Rick Riordan has ever written down to a shell and I know they can do better and that makes it frustrating. It just doesn’t make sense to me, because if I hadn’t known the story at this point and my introduction would be this Graphic Novel, I‘d be lost. Here’s the thing, I get that you have to make cuts by adapting a book into a Graphic Novel, but the decisions about what to cut her puzzle me to no end. D‘s sons, the romance between Clarisse and Chris (sure, cut her most human moments out), JUNIPER (!), Grover‘s moment of badassery and probably more that I don’t remember because I AM YELLING ABOUT THE KISS! Other things they cut that really should have stayed in include: Literally everything with Calypso (geez, wonder if that’s important for the Heroes of Olympus?), Rachel hitting Kronos with a brush, Percy saving one of Mr. Somebody sedate me, RIGHT NOW! From all the things you cut out, you chose Percabeth‘s first kiss? HOW? WHY?Ĭalming myself now. D‘s sons, the romanc THEY CUT OUT THE KISS! THEY CUT OUT THE KISS! THEY CUT OUT. SERIOUSLY, WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK? Okay, okay. THEY CUT OUT THE KISS! THEY CUT OUT THE KISS! THEY CUT OUT - Somebody sedate me, RIGHT NOW! From all the things you cut out, you chose Percabeth‘s first kiss? HOW? WHY? Calming myself now.
