Mateus Guanaes: cabe a ressalva que a capa refletiva metalizada se assemalha a um poster, não é embutida na capa, sendo removivel se faz necessário um cuidado maior, ou mesmo a remoção

RADMILA MARJANOVIC: This is coming from someone who hasn't read a graphic novel in nearly a decade I believe now and someone who's just never been that much of a fan of reading in general. V for Vendetta doesn't present every character as a one note "good" or "bad" guy, you get an understanding behind our fascist characters as well as our anarchist V, Evey, etc. The book challenges and makes you question upon morality through our characters and the context behind some of their actions. David Lloyd did an excellent job through the art style, there's a lot of great looking imagery, not to mention the beautifully designed issue covers as well. Book only had a very minor looking wrinkle at the top of the dust cover but besides that the novel was in great condition.

Johny Joestar: I have been wanting to read this piece for a very long time. Allen Moore's work has been action packed and thought provoking.

Raul: As for the story, its a classic comic book story by one of the most legendary writers, earlier in his writing career than most of his stories that have gathered acclaim. As such, the story does come off as a bit overly idealistic at times, and plot elements feel like they might've been concocted by a rebellious teenager. This mostly subsides the about 1/3rd of the way through, and you really start to enjoy its more tender and human moments. David Lloyd's art style is very old school for comics, which I personally wasn't looking for, but it is a memorable art style, and Lloyd is clearly a very skilled artist.
As for the product and the edition, the form is very good. I really like the sleeve, with the simple Guy Fawkes mask, and the red foil "V". There are letters and writings from Alan Moore and David Lloyd throughout the book gathered from various fan magazines discussing their inspiration and feelings about their work years after it gained fame, and also includes plenty of concept art from Lloyd which I personally really enjoyed to see. They include some of the original covers and promotional material which are one of the best parts of V for Vendetta. The paper is thin and...

Andrew O.Andrew O.: Aside from the movie i’d seen once and probably a decade ago this was my introduction to V For Vendetta. I had never read this comic before and figured since it was a complete and contained story I would go with the anniversary hardcover edition. Typically I'm not one for hardcover editions and prefer paperback for some odd reason I figured I'd pick up the anniversary edition hoping it would contain extras and a more premium experience compared to the standard paperback.
For anyone new, this is a story with a political focus, I for one am not one for politics at least right now I'm not, but this story had my complete focus and was captivating every chapter. The thing I found most immersive and interesting was the world and how it's delivered by Alan Moore. Since this has a relevance to politics this is one series that will always be relevant throughout time in my opinion and because of that regardless of the year it will always be a comic you can pick up and read whenever. I myself already plan to read it again on a nice summer weekend. The story was well written and like I said I can't wait to come back to it and maybe pick up on more details that I probably missed,...

David Swan: Given the current political climate in the United States it’s chilling that V for Vendetta opens with the “voice of fate” imploring every man to seize the initiative to “make Britain great again”. There is no single charismatic leader at the head of the fascist state in Britain but the government is clearly using fear of minorities to seize power. Unlike in the U.S. there was a singular catastrophic event that turned people towards fascism and in this case it was a bit more of a seizure of power rather than an embrace of fascism by some of the populace. With 30 years gone by since V for Vendetta was first published by DC, the story is now more relevant than ever and the classic Guy Fawkes mask has only grown more iconic.
Technically speaking V for Vendetta started being published in Britain in 1982, which is well beyond 30 years, but it was cancelled after just two issues worth of material. To the eternal credit of DC they picked up the baton in 1988 and completed the 10 issue series. This is one of those once in a lifetime stories that Alan Moore used to produce on a regular basis and arguably his most influential story ever. It’s also one of Alan Moore’s...
