Saw the film tonight and have never read the comic. This felt like an ordinary comic book conversion, enjoyable enough but not special. There were some nice moments, good massed crowd sequence at the end. It didn't quite pull everything together for me, perhaps the original would do this better.

Would you like to have a spaceship that can blow up planets? The Lexx is commanded by Stanley Tweedle through an unlikely series of accidents. All of the heroes in this series have their problems, often many of them. Produced at a similar time to Babylon 5 and Farscape but with a very different style and, I expect, a much lower budget.

Dream Hunters is set in the world of Sandman and told in the style of a Japanese folk tale. Although this story has no historical precedent it feels wonderfully natural and is set with wonderful illustrations. I prize artwork here above any that is on up on my walls. This is a beautiful book.
