“The Complete ElfQuest” Book Review

[@ElfQuest-Official]

A really delightful review of ElfQuest, Austin! We're so glad you decided to pick up The Complete ElfQuest Vol 1 and hope you keep on reading the whole series.

Hello Austin, thank you for getting me into this looking fantastic comic! A question still: are all the volumes in B&W? Thanks for your reply. Cheers from Belgium.

Thanks for reaching out! Yes all of the “Complete” Elfquest books are in B&W. The newer volumes are more so “grayscale” because of the vibrant shading used in the recent comics. I assume they are this way for consistency. The original 1970’s Elfquest were entirely in B&W until Marvel comics reprinted them in the mid 80’s. If you want the newer issues in color I would recommend picking up the trade paperbacks that are not labeled “Complete”. Either way it’s all Elfquest, all good stuff. 👍

@@austin_the_brimstone Thanks so much for your answer. I'd prefer B&W or the original coloring but, for this theme, I think B&W is best.

I didn’t know this series existed until I saw a few single volumes of it at a thrift store recently. I thought I’d watch some reviews because it looked intriguing. You’ve made it sound so amazing! I’m definitely going to give it a shot 😻

This video gives me such nostalgia I love it please keep making videos like this

[@austin_the_brimstone]

Glad you liked it! Oh don’t worry I’ve got STACKS of old sci-fi/fantasy comics and books. I’ll be making these reviews….well probably forever!

I grew up reading the full colored comics. Black and white is a deal breaker for me.

[@austin_the_brimstone]

The colors do pop, and I agree that a full-color release would be awesome. I’d double-dip for sure.

I like both , I still have the OG Colour Graphic novels from the early 90s, Before them I read some of the Black and White issues.

[@alienboytoys]

lol. I love this review. Made me smile. U did a superb job!! I am definitely interested!!...Thank you ❤❤

[@austin_the_brimstone]

thank you for the kind words! 😁

[@jeanettecarnell8933]

I wish I could afford the colour volumes!but love the black and white as well,as all the exquisite detail is not obscured by the colours.some i have,the colour is so dence that detais are kind if hidden.tgw marvel comices are great.

[@austin_the_brimstone]

Yeah I tried to buy some of the color volumes but they’re pricey! A fun way to read Elfquest in color is to collect the 1980’s Marvel comics reprints. Not only are they in color but you get tons of lovely retro advertisements too.

I was looking for a review to see if I would be interested in this series and there just happened to be a fresh new video for just such an occasion

[@austin_the_brimstone]

The stars aligned! Thanks for watching.

I've been getting into Elfquest again but have been having trouble. I have the first 3 novels (not comics of graphic novels) that follow Cutter and his tribe. I've been trying to see if there's a book after "Captives of Blue Mountain" but it's hard to find concrete answers. Does anyone know if there are more 'words on paper' novels rather than the graphic novels?

[@austin_the_brimstone]

The only Elfquest novel I’m familiar with is “Journey to Sorrows’ End”. It’s a retelling of the first few books but much more detailed. (Since it’s a novel and not a comic.) Funnily enough it was published by Playboy Magazine who was trying to break into the young-adult book market.
