Review of 'Victor and Nora' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
I received an eARC of this book for review purposes. All opinions are my own.
Victor and Nora: A Gotham Love Story is a young adult graphic novel love story that takes place in Batman’s fictional city of Gotham. Anyone familiar with the backstory for Mr. Freeze can guess what will happen within the pages of this book, but it is more than worth the read.
I was actually very intrigued to see that DC Comics would be doing an origin story for Mr. Freeze for young adults. It wasn’t something I had expected to see and I was excited to read it.

What I like specifically about this graphic novel is just how beautiful and fun it was. The art is fantastic, the page layouts are beautiful and the story still ended up being a lot of fun, despite the tragedy to come. It was overall a very enjoyable read. It’s easy to see from Victor’s passion and love for Nora, how he became the Mr. Freeze we know him as. Nora is his single focus and nothing is more important to him than saving her.
