Review: The Last Werewolf


In a future city, the adventures of a female bounty hunter and a mysterious detective.

It''s unfortunate that the potential in 'The Last Werewolf' is buried by the terrible English translation. Otherwise the art, characters and setting all look good.


The manga style art is well done here. The characters look good, especially the female character. The black and white colors kinda remind me of a minor league version of Road with a wider range of contrast.

The problem with 'The Last Werewolf' is the English translation. Usually when foreign creators do comics with English dialogue the translation is a little off, but here it's a lot off. It gets to the point where it's too much of a distraction to enjoy the story. You think the character just said something witty, but you can't be sure if what you read is what was meant to be said.

It's a shame that such a good looking webcomic takes a hit for poor dialogue. 3 stars.
