King Arthur and the knights of justice- 4.0 stars
Usually I don't read graphic novels but as a reader who's quite fascinated with Arthurian legends, I had to give it a try. As far as the things go, It didn't disappoint me. The illustrations were quite good and so was the storyline. However, sometimes it felt like the pace of story has weakened but overall the story was something unique and absolutely amazing!

Am I biased because this is my childhood? Yes. Do I care? No. In my childhood, King Arthur and the Knights of Justice was one of my favourite TV series and my first exposure to Arthurian mythology (and probably where my obsession with Arthurian lore began). So when I saw this on NetGalley I had to read it, and I'm so glad I did.

A hit of nostalgia with a new take by Joe Corallo, an amazing comic artist and writer, King Arthur and the Knights of Justice brings the 90s into the 2020s with an amazing story, fun artwork and compelling characters. Corallo keeps the characters but gives them a new look that allows the loveable football jockeys to grow and flourish into their own, making them feel a bit more three-dimensional and clearing some plot holes created in the TV series as well as letting an old fan theory take charge at the end, making me hope that Corallo has ideas for a sequel or future series.

Overall, King Arthur and the Knights of Justice was an amazing adaptation of one of my favourite childhood TV series with additions that have me wanting to watch the series all over again and loving the characters who helped shape my love for Arthurian mythology. I highly recommend it to fans of King Arthur (both the myths and the 90s TV series) and comic fans who love a little time-travelling adventure.

Thank you, NetGalley and Mad Cave Studios for sending me an ARC in exchange for my honest review.
