This classic tale is a favourite of comics fans. Not only is it the inspiration for The Incredible Hulk, but Alan Moore used Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde in his original graphic novel series, The League of Extraordinary Gentleman, thus making this Classic Illustrated version of the original novel sort of an origin story for the monstrous Mr Hyde.
Likewise, Classics Illustrated, which featured fellow LOEG member The Invisible Man, will also appeal to fans of Mr Moore's Victorian Age super-hero team. Of course, this adaptation by Batman and Grendel artist JK Snyder is true to the spirit of the original Robert Louis Stevenson novel, and stands by itself as a fantastic thrilling adventure.
