    Frazer Irving just did this book for puffin! What a bandwagon this GN craze is.
    Who’s doing their Treasure Island? : )

    I don’t remember if it was for Penguin, but I very surprised when I found Chester Brown’s cover (w/biography of DH Lawrence on the back) for an edition of Lady Chatterlay’s Lover a few weeks ago. These are pretty cool if they are a series!

    My Barnes & Noble has an endcap display of the entire series. All are nicely art directed, such as Charles Burns’ cow head for Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle. I hope Penguin will issue some posters.

  4. CharlesR: Yes, it’s also part of the Penguin Series.

  5. Patrick Dean says:

    That Frankenstein monster looks a little like Crispin Glover.
