Green Manor II: The Inconvenience of Being Dead is another comic that I started this year but didn't finish. I read Green Manor I and half of Green Manor II before petering out. Written by Fabien Vehlmann and illustrated by Denis Bodart, Green Manor II is more European goodness, set in Victorian England. It takes place at the Green Manor Club, where there is a perchance for murder and mayhem among the high-crust members.
I don't read enough mysteries. Whenever I do, I wonder why I don't read more. While I do love comics like The Humans, there is little doubt as to how a comic like that is going to end. A good mystery, on the other hand, not only surprises you but makes you curious about what the surprise is. This comic does exactly that, driving you to read the next story and the one after that. I'm surprised I stop reading a comic as engaging as this one.
