I hope my rating doesn't discourage anyone, because I'm definitely not in the "target audience" for this. I'm really not a graphic novel kind of person. But, I had seen the movie, heard how great it was supposed to be, and decided to give it a try. I can honestly say, while I didn't personally care for it, I can see where all the hype comes from, and it's certainly well deserved. The story is unexpectedly complex, and the message is powerful. While it wasn't my cup of tea, I can still completely respect it for what it achieves for the genre. On that front, it is in no way a disappointment.
