I've been reading a collection of Lovecraft's stories (to be blogged about later) and I decided to grab this while I was at it. It contains graphic renditions of 7 of Lovecraft's works (Call of Cthulhu, Haunter of the Dark, Dunwich Horror, Colour out of Space, Shadow over Innsmouth, Rats in the Walls, and Dagon), each done by a different illustrator. The content is, of course, greatly condensed, but still as eerie as the full versions. Seeing Lovecraft's odd creations brought to life as each artist visualized them is a treat, and much of the artwork brought back memories of reading Tales from the Crypt back in the day. A fun addition to any fan of Lovecraft's reading list.Wednesday, April 2, 2014
