Dead Boy Detectives review

Netflix blesses us with another Vertigo adaptation and just like last time they do not disappoint. Loosely adapting the first arc, this series otherwise creates a brand new plot while feeling like the comics continuity. The characters are on point and the ones introduced are whimseical much like any Vertigo character.

The opening is highly amusing and I never skip it. The show does uses traditional animation for one scene and it’s positively lovely. Otherwise, the live action and CGI special effects are as good as the show’s budget could provide, which is impressive by itself. The set design is chef’s kiss.

Highly recommend this series
