It's quite appropriate that Mike Mignola did the cover art, since this has a very 'medieval Hellboy' feel to it.

"A witcher is a witcher."

A excellent fantasy novel, includes multiple stories, the artwork is very good, and well detailed, there are lots of additional artwork included, alternative covers etc. I like the story were the witcher meets a man at the side of a river, they travel into a very dangerous wood, full of many creatures that are watching them, in this wood they discover an house, the witcher as an opportunity to discover love and relationship with a woman who lives in this house but turns her down to continue his

Read due to the Netflix show - which is preferable if you want an origin story(ish) + narrative arc. The series here drops one in without explanation or setting up the character's isolation from humans... in fact, one might be forgiven in thinking that Witchers are as well or poorly liked as any stranger roaming the countryside, and even a bit more respected than most. It's basically an episodic slaying monsters tale with sometimes-decent character development on the monsters... definitely bette...

The Witcher Library Edition by Paul Tobin is a terrific way for new readers to get into the comic book series. I admit that I have never played the game and have watched several of the Netflix episodes, which has only cemented the belief that Henry Cavill sucks at acting and if it wasn't for the time he spent in the gym, he wouldn't have a career at all. So my expectations in the comic book were not high. Wow was I surprised! SummaryThis collection is far more than your traditional graphic novel...

This was a fun read. I picked it up because we are watching the Netflix series, and I wanted to understand the universe better. I can see how it’s different, but I think it did help me grasp the world building a little more. I look forward to reading more of this graphic novel series. I enjoy how intense can be. Definitely for a mature audience, but still so good!!!

OH HELLO. Where did you come from??

This was super fun to read! I'm really glad to have started reading more graphic novels. Also, I haven't watched the show, so I'm not entirely sure how similar this is to the Netflix series.

A set of 4 Witcher tales. House of Glass and Fox Children I liked the best. Killing Monsters dragged a bit for me.

The book itself.The Witcher Omnibus is a collection of comics based in the world of The Witcher, taking inspiration from the games and the books respectively. Each writer showed an influence from one or the other, resulting in an omnibus that collects many detatched issues. The art is also subject to this, in particular, with the last comics, which used direct copies of appearances and style from the games. The writing is mostly enjoyable, but each writer feels as thoug hthey want to do very sim...

This was a real chore to get through. I've never played the games, read the novels, or seen the Netflix show, and this chunky omnibus did virtually nothing to fill me in on who Geralt is, why he does what he does, or who any of the supporting characters who come and go in every story arc are. Too Inside Baseball for me. I console myself by saying that it was worth buying for the spectacular Mike Mignola cover....

The Witcher Omnibus is a collection of Witcher graphic novels. The first is about a cursed house in the woods, with a Vampire trying to keep its inhabitants trapped. In the second, the Witcher protects a river boat crew from a vengeful Vulpess. In the final volume, the Geralt the Witcher and his companion, Ciri, seek out a Striga. I really enjoyed all of these, with my favourites being the first two volumes, and enjoying the third to a lesser degree. Awesome fantasy world building as always from...

This omnibus collects the first three volumes of The Witcher at Dark Horse, given that they're not massively out of print. These include three five issue mini-series and a one-shot, plus some sketchbook stuff.The opening series, House Of Glass, took me a little while to get into. It feels like the mystery plays out over a little too much of the page count in the middle; Paul Tobin probably could have gotten to the point a bit faster since the plot kind of spins its wheels around issue 3. The ult...

This is a collection of the four Witcher comics, House of Glass, Fox Children, Killing Monsters and Curse of Crows, and it is excellent!The Witcher universe is one of my favorite universes, it’s dark, humorous and diverse, full of monsters and creatures from slavic folklore. It’s also full of moral choices, of complicated relationships, of finding the truth in a world that’s never black and white. Of having to do the lesser evil when no other option has been given you, and taking responsibility....

This omnibus has been my first experience with graphic novels, and - if I'm honest, I am still rather on the fence about them.To some degree I admit that it may be me. I struggled at first to give myself proper time to take in each panel, to read the art as much as the text. But I made a conscious and concerted effort and I think, at least toward the end, that it paid off.I am a huge Witcher fan and have been following Geralt's adventures for almost a decade now, across all of the formats. This,...

You can find my review on my blog by clicking here.Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski probably didn’t see coming the Westernized treatment of his beloved Witcher saga over the past years. From movies, television series, video games, and comic books, the various adaptations remain tantalizing to voracious and hungry fantasy aficionados all around the world. With the recent Netflix television series adaptation that unleashes actor Henry Cavill as the witcher, there was no denying its timely and fitti...

A mix of original Witcher stories and rehashes from the novels. My favorite story was "House of Glass"; it was suitably creepy and had a fun twist. My least favorite was "Curse of Crows", which is a mix of an older Witcher story rehash mixed with an original (and pretty boring) story.

I wasn't a fan of this comic book version of the Witcher, neither the art nor the storytelling won me over - the only good parts were the retellings IMO, but even there you're still better off reading the original stories. I felt that there were several out of character moments, especially in Geralt's dialog.I found it striking that while visually a lot in the comic seemed based on Witcher 3 (the game) in particular, it had been scoured of everything that might look even vaguely Slavic... very d...

The stories work just as well in comics as they do in the books, and TV show, and, I assume, the game. If you don't know: he fights monsters, rides horses, grunts wittily, and takes baths. Lots of baths in this book.The first two stories have art by Joe Querio and resemble the look of "Hellboy". The latter stories have different art which I enjoy less.

O.M.G! This volume is massive! When I suggested the purchase to my library I thought I was asking for the 1st book. Either I screwed up the ISBN or the library went ahead and bought the entire collection under one cover. Either way, my library is AWESOME!***************************************************************4.5Book source ~ LibraryGeralt of Rivia is a witcher, someone who is a monster hunter for hire.
