What a beautiful book! We had conversation about it last night, and we both agreed that the design/marketing folks really hit a home run with this one. It's a big, chunky book with a killer dust jacket (as pictured); the actual cover of the book has the same image that was used on prior editions (I think).<br /><br />Amazon is selling this heavily discounted, as I'm sure are other vendors. If you're interested, we'd highly recommend this edition.<br /><br />DougDoughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04248324005584963229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293155946761960913.post-50392462771819776522015-02-17T19:10:57.958-06:002015-02-17T19:10:57.958-06:00I loved the movie.

I adored it when it came out and have it a few times, in the original books and a trade. The animated is fantastic and arguably the most accurate translation of a story to cartoon yet. <br /><br />Rip OffRip Jaggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09936426877024852134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293155946761960913.post-45849340070961830922015-02-17T12:02:40.002-06:002015-02-17T12:02:40.002-06:00I saw the animated New Frontier, but haven't r...I saw the animated New Frontier, but haven't read the comic.
