COMIC BOOK REVIEW - Larfleeze: The Face Of Greed

By The Masked Medic

‘The Face of Greed’ follows the story and Larfleeze having not been destroyed by these “Gods” is furious at their actions. The novel introduces a few more siblings in the House of Tuath-Dan, all of whom realize that Larfleeze is going to pose a problem to their attempt to conquer this Universe. The final showdown occurs on a planet called “Sorrow”, where the inhabitants have managed to contact one of the Green Lanterns, called G’nort to come and sort the situation out.

OK. So I remember that after the last Larfleeze novel, I was left extremely confused. After this novel, I wasn’t confused, just a little baffled as to the point of this comic series. I mean there’s hilarity and then there’s just downright uselessness. I didn’t enjoy this novel.

The artwork was again, extremely cartoon-like which I guess served the point of the tone that this novel was going for. The covers were a little more lifelike, and I chose the one above because it was a pretty good team-up! Overall, I felt like this series was just a tad unnecessary, and I’m not sure I’ve gained anything from reading it, except to know that Larfleeze is way more powerful than he’s given credit for!

Favourite Panel:

Teamwork makes the dream work!

I’m not sure I had one.
