John Tiffany - Volume 1 - The Secret of Happiness (Hardcover)

Customer Review

Oh, how original, even a comic whose hero is a hitman (with more or less heart), a tad chauvinistic, gunslinger, (falsely) cynical, and, stand Well, rolls big guns! Or how endlessly reproduce the same pattern ...

At the same time, coming from the author of the "IRS" series, one could legitimately expect the characters "streamlined" in this way. The drawing is in the same register "usual" with an author passed through the world of comics and which uses the shapes and colors, while giving the whole a stroke more consistent with what is known on the market fruitful Franco-Belgian comics.

The story began badly with poorly cut sequences and dialogues semberlificotent and contribute to accentuate the feeling of deja vu quite unpleasant. Our hero, John Tiffany constantly adopts postures reminiscent of a Largo Winch comic mixed with the sauce, in short nothing flamboyant, both in form and substance.

Then, through the pages, surprisingly, the sauce takes. Admittedly, the supporting cast (especially that of teammate Tiffany) are well thought out and bring a little fun and above all originality (aaah, the beautiful comparison with Sarah Palin, delicious!). In fact, the player who had almost let limply down his attention (and the book with!) Is greatly exhilarated. For without peak performance and despite always scenes rather inconsistent at times, history is strengthened and the last pages of the first volume, the reader necessarily want to learn more. That's probably where the aim of the authors. And contrary to what one might have feared after the first few pages, they get there perfectly. There will be time to see the reading of Volume 2 if they manage to stay the course!
