No one knows for sure if Sweeney Todd actually existed, but this story, taken from a serialization in a penny dreadful from 1846, was the first official record of the terrible crimes committed by the Demon Barber of Fleet Street. Gory? No! What's particularly good about this adaptation is that none of the horror is to be seen - making this a truly wonderful version of a brilliant book.

(W) William Shakespeare, John McDonald (A) Will Volley 'Now is the winter of our discontent, made glorious summer by this son of York.' One of Shakespeare's earliest and most acclaimed plays, Richard III dramatizes the dramatic and bloody conclusion to the Wars of the Roses and the scheming of Richard, Duke of Gloucester, to ascend to the throne in place of his brother, the King. Classical Comics' Original Text adaptation of the play retains Shakespeare's original words, while the Quick Text presents the tale in a form more accessible to modern audiences.

by William Shakespeare (Author), John McDonald (Editor), Will Volley (Illustrator) This is the full play in quick modern English for a fast-paced read! 'Now is the winter of our discontent. Made glorious summer by this son of York'. Never let facts get in the way of a good story! The events that surrounded Richard III, and the way that they have been recorded through history, have made this most interesting of Monarchs out to be a very bad man indeed. But was Shakespeare's version of events anywhere near the truth? We'll never truly know. All we can assure you of is that our book is true to the play, and to how The Bard intended it. No one is safe from the evil Duke of Gloucester! (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

by Jason Cobley & Declan Shalvey True to the original novel (rather than the square-headed Boris Karloff image from the Universal films), Declan Shalvey's naturally gothic artistic style is a perfect match for this epic tale. Frankenstein is such a well known title, yet the films strayed so far beyond the original novel that many people today don't realize how this classic horror tale deals with such timeless subjects as alienation, empathy, and understanding beyond appearance.
