Comment: The prose-to-comic jam adaptations are a combination of illustrations and comic story. The main text runs as prose column and illustrations fames it, sometimes close to comics, sometimes mere illustating pictures. Mr. Corben’s part of course strikes out from the others. He has been wisely put to the leading part. A four part story. Other artists (#2: Rick Geary, #3: J.B. Bonivert, #4: Mark A. Nelson).
