 Not worth it June 19, 2009

This is really no work of art. The artwork is nothing special (at all), and the story seems to have been written by a 15-year old. It does not really develop the relationship between Jareth and the girl, the protagonists here are mostly new, and very bidimensional. I bought all three volumes because I really liked the movie. Big mistake.
People seem to have liked this volume better, yet it is part of the collection and still not very good, just slightly better than the previous one. Jareth comes back with a little mystery, but if you're looking for a sequel or development of Labyrinth's story and magic, this is not it.
 Not as good as the others in the series June 15, 2009
For anyone who's been paying attention to this series from the beginning knows that it took the writers and artists just over a year between the first and second mangas. But this one took just under 2 years! With the amount of time they took I thought this one was going to be great, especially after the second one! I was sadly mistaken.
Personally I didn't think this one was that good. The artistry really lacked, more than usual, and it was very obvious compared to the second manga. It didn't seem like they really knew how to put this one together. Such a short amount of things happened but took so long to get around to. It also didn't feel believable like the others, meaning it was much harder to really be drawn into the story.
The one thing that just kept bugging me what how Jareth was drawn, and while he's not the main character in this series, he still greatly matters. There were times that he actually looked, well, fat! Like he'd randomly been squashed down and got a beer belly, or the cloths looked cheap. It was odd.
It saddens me that the third one didn't live up to it's previous mangas and I have a bad feeling it'll be a while til the final one. I would give this one 3 1/2 stars if possible because I certainly have read worse, and this wasn't terrible, just not as good as the others. If the last one looks and feels as bad as this one I fear it may kill a great story.

This volume is the best till now ! I've enjoyed all the jokes in it (the devils from The Story-Teller appear in one page,the Cats alussion Sarah made to her cat,etc), apart from showing Jareth's evil side...I can't wait for the last volume!
Getting better all the time June 5, 2009

Finally, in the third book, the plot is starting to come together, and it's so clever and romantic that I'm going to die of anticipation before the fourth book comes out! Much better than the first two books, though now that I'm starting to see where the story's headed, I'm going to have to go back and read the first two :)
Better than ever May 19, 2009

This series has come along way from volume 1. The plot and characters are now fully developed and I cannot wait to see what's in store for the finale. While I was disappointed in how it started off, this series is now an engaging and worthy sequel to the movie. I just hope we don't have to wait quite as long for vol 4!
