"“…it excels in broad action shots, such as the first spotting of a massive sandworm maw. This efficient take will whet appetites for more adventures to come.” * Publishers Weekly * “Boasting eye-popping art from Raúl Allén and Patricia Martin… Dune: The Graphic Novel is a scene-by-scene adaptation of the beloved novel from two writers who are already very familiar with the worlds of Arrakis and beyond.” * The Hollywood Reporter * “It’s Dune, but easier on the eyes…That means you can indulge a bit here, taking time to remind yourself of what makes the original source material so good…” * Polygon * “The palette practically makes Arrakis‘ blazing heat and desolation jump off the page…This art is gorgeous.” * Nerdist * “…an adaptation worthy of continuing the franchise's legacy for a new generation.” * Comic Book Resources * “…a breathtaking new comic book adaptation.” * SPACE.com * “The core of what made Dune a great science fiction novel has been preserved, and to it are added vibrant visuals in Dune: The Graphic Novel, Book 1—a resoundingly successful adaptation.” * Foreword STARRED Review * “Raúl Allén and Patricia Martín take a dense story and apply all that nuance and subtext to their visual language in adapting Dune. Panels establish scope and geography, and showcase the character who has the power in a scene, all the while guiding you as if you were on a theme park ride through the wild sci-fi action of warring families and giant sand worms. These two have pulled off a rare feat and made a political tale visually compelling."" -- Eric Heisserer * Oscar-nominated screenwriter of Arrival * “Intricate . . . well defined . . . easy to follow . . . blending the aristocratic costumery, sci-fi technology, and desert landscape into a world that is unmistakably Dune.” * Booklist * “A much-needed addition to the series started by Frank Herbert decades ago.” * The Nerd Daily * “The carefully chosen color palettes are particularly compelling, conveying the perfect sense of mood in every situation…a good gateway into the world of Dune.” * Boing Boing *"
