Gorl it was incredibly cliche (but im trash and will consume anything with assassins/hitmen). The trial scene still haunts me when they were talking about the doctor's sexual orientation...called him a homosexual even though he was married to a woman prior. Bi/pan erasure for khwat. If I hate myself enough, I might read the actual novel just to compare and see if Jane Seville is a dumb bitch or if it was just an error in translation.

yooo really? i haven't started reading this yet but i read the actual novel and literally finished it in the span of 3 hours, i could not put it down lol.
you're right it's kinda cliche i guess, but the novel is kinda longer i think so they have time to develop the relationship, i'm pretty sure they didn't say anything about love until near the end.
honestly tho the novel is hella good, you should read it

I'm eyeing it on the Kindle app, but I do have a few other books and comics I need to finish before I put myself through that (would only read purely just for comparing to the graphic novel). Idk if you've seen my other reply to the other comment regarding how they addressed Jack's sexual orientation (during the trial scene), but I would like to know if they actually just said he was just homosexual in the actual novel compared to the graphic novel. Literally one of my biggest complaints regarding the story.
The story is shit, ngl (I have so much gripes about the pacing and dialogue) but the art is nice and it's pretty neat that a comic artist drew for an American made novel.
