A few year ago I bought a
comic book adapation
of H.P. Lovecraft's
Dreamquest of Unknown Kadath.
I'm a big Lovecraft fan, particularly of his stuff that's more fantasy
than horror. I still remember the day I bought the complete set of
Lovecraft stories published by
Arkham House.
It was my first ever online purchase; alas,
the store has since closed.
The comic is fun - it neatly captures the wonder and mystery of Lovecraft's epic fables. I like the everyman aspect of Mock Man, a nice rendering of Lovecraft's own generic men. The thing that I think is coolest is that in the comic book is a URL and email address from 1997, and they still work! The Bits out of Time. |
