Mage: The Hero Discovered by Matt Wagner
This is (apparently) a cult graphic novel from the 90s that I had somehow missed. I decided to fix that when I heard about it. I was underwhelmed. First of all, I find the graphic style very poor and while that is not normally what matters the most to me, it becomes more prominent when the rest doesn't follow. And the "coming into power" story of Mage is nothing if not ultra-classic. It's not bad, but it's not in any way exceptional and I fail to see how/why it became cult. Oh well, I guess you can't win every time.
