Okay by far my favorite sci-if graphic novel series. Fun fast paced action packed and deals with societal differences and diversity. The 7th volume can't come soon enough!!!

"This was playing at my parents’ house through most of the 70s. It figures into that whole blaxploitation graphic style, but the cover goes somewhere more naïve and beautiful"

Graphic adaptation of on eof my favourite Discworld books, which is set eras before the 'main' Discworld stories themselves.

I have to be honest: I didn't even know there was this adapatation of the story until I came across it in a local bookstory: having read it, I think I prefer this over the only other graphical take on the stories I had encountered before ([b:The Discworld Graphic Novels: The Colour of Magic & The Light Fantastic|2728900|The Discworld Graphic Novels The Colour of Magic & The Light Fantastic|Terry Pratchett|https://d2arxad8u2l0g7.cloudfront.net/books/1348432296s/2728900.jpg|2754534]) in that the artwork seems more vibrant, more what I would imagine the characters to be like.

Beautiful artwork (0 more)

I'm a huge Neil Gaiman fan so I'd read the short story 'Snow Glass Apples' previously and enjoyed it. Although I've read most of his graphic novels with some of the recent adaptations of short stories I've not been sure if having a graphic novel version was really adding value. So when I saw there was a new adaptation of this one I had a look through before deciding to buy. All I can say is that the artwork is beautiful, Colleen Doran has done an excellent job bringing this to life, with sensitive handling of the more graphic details. I'd definitely recommend this, it's a lovely addition to any collection.
