Marcella

Pure retro slapstick, Steamboat Willie aesthetic。

Petya

Wait, what?

Travis Cook

Great fun and a even better art style。

WonderfulI have yet to play the game, but I love Cuphead。 These comics are true to their iconic ways。 I will probably buy more over time。

There's no faulting the art - it's excellent。 But the stories just were very boring and had no point to them。 There's no faulting the art - it's excellent。 But the stories just were very boring and had no point to them。 。。。more

I have never played this game, and I likely never will。 It's not the type of game I enjoy。 But I've always loved the aesthetic, which is what lead me here。 And it's even better than I had hoped。 This is pitch perfect retro, obviously heavily inspired by Merrie Melodies, Silly Symphonies, and their contemporaries。 I love that era of animation, and this is truly a loving homage。 Everybody involved here has truly understood the assignment。 I have never played this game, and I likely never will。 It's not the type of game I enjoy。 But I've always loved the aesthetic, which is what lead me here。 And it's even better than I had hoped。 This is pitch perfect retro, obviously heavily inspired by Merrie Melodies, Silly Symphonies, and their contemporaries。 I love that era of animation, and this is truly a loving homage。 Everybody involved here has truly understood the assignment。 。。。more

Delightful companion for the fans of the game。 Just a bit short。

Jennifer

Very quick read。 Giving this as a gift so I just read it mostly to see the art in it。 I loved the game and this book is cute but it’s nothing special。 Mostly loved the artwork。

Evan Yu

Nice art。 These comics capture the essence of Cuphead and Mugman as portrayed in the game and the Netflix series

Best art ever, worst stories ever

I love the cuphead game and show and found these comics to be a fun and quick read and the imagery is really fun and vibrant as it is in those other mediums as well。

I love love LOVE the animated expressions and the usage of font to convey emotions—- it’s so masterful and clean and I’m just awestruck dafak

Ignacio Romeo Gómez

Un divertido, aunque anárquico, homenaje a los cartoons antiguos, con ecos del primer Michey Mouse o Betty Boop。 Sólo le falta el jazz sonando de fondo。 Escueto pero divertido para echar un rato。

Sebastian Rangel

5 stars for the art alone。 I don't like how they changed Mugman's character, but 。。。I don't really have anything else to say it's just nice。 5 stars for the art alone。 I don't like how they changed Mugman's character, but 。。。I don't really have anything else to say it's just nice。 。。。more

This is just like the Netflix tv show! Love the art, the stories bring me back to early- mid 1900s … the volume is NOT a whole story, it’s a bunch of mini stories just like the show。 It’s fun and I just love the artist! Just wish it had better substance to the stories or had like music you could listen to as you read。

Ole-Kristian Solberg

It's a hard thing trying to match the creative and inventive brilliance of the Cuphead game。 While this is more in line with a typical comic, the artstyle is good, the humor is fun at times, and it's certainly creative at times。 Well worth the read for fans of the game。 It's a hard thing trying to match the creative and inventive brilliance of the Cuphead game。 While this is more in line with a typical comic, the artstyle is good, the humor is fun at times, and it's certainly creative at times。 Well worth the read for fans of the game。 。。。more

Es un excelente fan service。 Las ilustraciones son muy buenas, es un premio a la nostalgia de quienes vimos caricaturas de Merry Melodies。 Pero las historias son breves y sin mucha gracia。 Comprelo si quieres acariciar la nostalgia。

Evan

Charming series of stories。 Way better than expected。 I initially got this because of the art。 I wasn't disappointed。 Charming series of stories。 Way better than expected。 I initially got this because of the art。 I wasn't disappointed。 。。。more

I very much preferred the game but the art style is just primo everywhere!

Courtney

Enjoyed this as I am also reading Art of Cuphead。 It feels consistent to a honed aesthetic that is heavily inspired by cartoons of the past while still feeling like it’s own。 It’s likeable。

"Beware, boys! Last night I heard ghastly sounds coming from the cemetery! Ooooooohh。。。Aaaaahh。。。Eeeeee。。。Etceteraaa!"Cuphead is a game that I love watching my husband play。 I love the graphics and how they incorporated that old-time feel to it。 Plus the game was really interesting。 This graphic novel follows Cuphead on some crazy side adventures。 The art is the same style as the game and the mini stories were exactly what you would expect these to be。 They were kooky and quite entertaining。 The "Beware, boys!

Silly and fun。 Love that retro style。

Paul Harris

Read it for the art。

Maggie Tokuda-Hall

adorable, old school cartoon fun。 bonus points for the siren who gets revenge of her scam artist boss

Ben

Shawn Dickinson's illustrations are spot-on and deliver the kind of zany aesthetic you want in a Cuphead comic。 Goes down easy, but there's plenty to look at in repeat viewings。 Shawn Dickinson's illustrations are spot-on and deliver the kind of zany aesthetic you want in a Cuphead comic。 Goes down easy, but there's plenty to look at in repeat viewings。 。。。more

‘Cuphead’ es un videojuego que recupera el estilo de animación norteamericano de los años 30。 Visualmente es una joya irresistible。。。 aunque tiene como contrapartida que es tremendamente difícil。 Incluso para alguien entrenado en los inclementes juegos de la era de los 8 bits。 Si algo define a ‘Cuphead’ como juego, además de lo bonito que es, es la frustración que despierta。Consciente de que no podré acabarlo nunca y me perderé contenido irremediablemente, me conformo con la dosis que ofrece est ‘Cuphead’ es un videojuego que recupera el estilo de animación norteamericano de los años 30。 Visualmente es una joya irresistible。。。 aunque tiene como contrapartida que es tremendamente difícil。 Incluso para alguien entrenado en los inclementes juegos de la era de los 8 bits。 Si algo define a ‘Cuphead’ como juego, además de lo bonito que es, es la frustración que despierta。Consciente de que no podré acabarlo nunca y me perderé contenido irremediablemente, me conformo con la dosis que ofrece este cómic。 Supongo que los autores saben a qué venimos aquí y han cargado las tintas en la parte gráfica。 Este primer volumen de ‘Cuphead’ ofrece una serie de historietas cortas, autoconclusivas, con un humor a medio gas。 Bien pensado, no deja de ser un calco de esas historietas infantiles donde los personajes se atribulaban por cosas triviales y nos hacían reír más bien por la comedia física。 Para alguien ávido como yo, es una pena que no se hayan esmerado mucho en presentar un universo o en profundizar en los personajes。 En ese sentido, sí que vemos cameos de villanos con los que nos hemos partido la cara en nuestra consola y otros invitados。 Fan service, lo llaman。Otro punto a tener en cuenta es que el guion contiene numerosos juegos de palabras, así que imagino que la traducción habrá sido un infierno。 Es de esos casos en los que sientes la extrañeza cuando lo lees en español pero no te enteras de media si lo lees en inglés。 Pero, vaya, bien。 La verdad es que dan ganas de rasgar las páginas y colgar alguna de la pared。 O tatuarse algo。 El arte de Shawn Dickinson captura perfectamente el estilo que nos fascina a muchos。Muy pronto ‘Cuphead’ tendrá su serie en Netflix。 Asumo que será algo parecido, emulando las tiras cómicas, pero añadiendo otros dos elementos poderosos: la animación y la música。 Y estaré yo, gozándolo, con el mando de la consola bien guardadito。 。。。more
