Girl: Rule of Darkness

Rating:
Summary: Good, but tamer than the original Girl
Review: Girl: Rule of Darkness continues where the original Girl graphic novel ended. Girl is now the manager of the Kit Kat Klub and having a little trouble "finding relief". Unfortunately for Girl, some friends of her demonic possessor from the first book have come back with vengenance in mind.

This book is shorter than the original Girl and the scenes are not quite as explicit as the original. Some of the more outrageous scenes (like demonic coupling) are done in silhouette.

The illustration is rough and not particularly sophisticated. However, it crude format matches the content fairly well. The subject matter is extremely explicit and Taylor uses the power of illustration to show scenes that could never happen in real life. Some people will not care for the scenes with the semi bestial demons, others will be interested in it's "over the top" nature.

If you are looking for novel about a sexually uninhibited woman, who is open to anything and always ready for more, you are going to love Girl. If you are looking for sophistication illustration, try Eric von Gotha instead. If you are looking for complex characters and plot, try Laura Rees.

Summary: Total waste of money
Review: The old saying "Don't judge a book by its cover" applies nowhere better than here.

I totally loved the cover art and was expecting more wickedly delicious goodness inside, but instead all I got was a massive disappointment at the utterly lame and untalented contents.

The plot is so simple as to be virtually nonexistant. Hell, a primary school kid could probably think up a better plot than this: Girl runs a strip joint. Girl gets threatened by mobsters. Girl goes out and has sex with 2 guys. Girl then has sex with another guy who used to be her old flame. Girl goes to have sex with him again but gets sucked into another dimension where some guy who we suppose is Asian (due to some racial stereotype dialogue) has her repeatedly raped by demons (more on this part below). Girl somehow escapes and ends story by taking care of mobsters with mysterious new super-powers. -- Say what???

Added to this is really poor quality art. I think I can draw better than this guy! Yeah, so he made his name drawing over-inflated breasts and exaggeratedly huge male genitalia. -- So what? And the demons he draws in the other dimension are so badly done they're laughable. NOTHING like the promise he showed on the cool cover.

I deeply regret wasting the money I did on this. Unless you happen to already be a fan of his work and know what you're getting, for anyone else I would say don't bother.

Summary: Good, but mainly for Fans
Review: This one is good, if you are a Girl or Kevin Taylor fan.... however the first Girl was much much much better in story, in imagery and in sex. If you're new to Kevin or the Girl series, go with THE GIRL first, its a can't miss... this is just added fun.
