Not a bad comic based on the H Rider Haggard character, but I'm not a fan of the faux manga art.

I'm a sucker for this character, Glen, which is why this is on my pull list, as will Mark Ellis's new King Solomon's Mines when it comes out later this year from Sequential Pulps. And ultimately Airship 27 Productions has some nifty plans for Mr.Haggard's adventurer. Stay tuned.

I'm obviously prejudiced, but after looking through the Bluewater issue, I much prefer Quatermain as rendered by Pablo Marcos.
 Nor will we be done with Quatermain after we're finished with King Solomon's Mines...Pablo and I have agreed that our next Quatermain adventure will be a retelling and reimagining of--

Hot dog, Mark. I first saw the Ursula Andress Hammer production at a local drive-in as a teen-ager. Years later I picked up the Merian Ci. Copper RKO version with Randolf Scott and Nigel Bruce, it too is an awesome flick. Makes you wonder if somewhere down the future road, we'll one day get a third rendition.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0267923/ Here's two remakes. The first one is completely lame, the second I haven't seen. |
