While I have read Slaughterhouse Five, it was a long long time ago, so this was sort of like a new read with inklings of remembering.

I liked this SO MUCH BETTER than the original book. It barely felt like the same story to me--although, I know it probably was, the original novel I just had absolutely no idea what was going on. Ever. It couldn't hold my interest long enough for me to care. I listened to it on audiobook while doing chores years ago and the reader annoyed me so much I couldn't pay attention to anything.
ANYWAYS. I'm so glad this was a good adaptation. The art was quite fitting for the story.

Si algo tiene este cómic es que me han dado ganas de leer el libro porque obviamente deja muchas cosas en el tintero. Es normal, es una adaptación, y me da la impresión de que es un libro muy complejo de adaptar.
Al menos la historia tiene coherencia, o toda la coherencia que puede tener una trama con saltos en el tiempo. Me ha gustado la parte metaliteraria del cómic y los dibujos de Albert Monteys funcionan muy bien, aunque me costaba ver la diferencia de edad en una u otra escena del protagonista (cuando se suponen que tienen edades distintas).
Lo dicho, me ha gustado, pero me da la impresión de que el libro debe ser mejor. Y una auténtica fumada.

Slaughterhouse-Five is one of my all time favourite books, and this adaptation of it is just as masterful.

I’m super leery of adaptations, especially when one of my favorites is involved, but Ryan North absolutely does Slaughterhouse-Five justice. The time travel bits were handled brilliantly. Some of Monteys’s art gave me literal chills. Vonnegut fans, you must get your hands on this! It’s gorgeous. I think Father Kurt would approve.

- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated

- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
