Harlan Ellison's Dream Corridor: Volume 2

By Gerard Jones, Mark Waid, Harlan Ellison, et al.

Ever wonder what it would be like to walk into someone else's mind and have a look around? Well, what if that person happened to be a brilliant storyteller whose imagination has captivated millions of readers over the past five decades? In the award-winning anthology Harlan Ellison's Dream Corridor, we have had both the privilege and peril of rooting around in the eponymous fellow's noggin to see what makes him tick -- and what engrossing stories have been hidden away in the cracks and crevices of his gray matter. The words of world-renowned science-fiction author Harlan Ellison are once again translated onto the page by top comics creators, including Paul Chadwick, Neal Adams, Steve Rude, Gene Colan, Steve Niles, Gerard Jones, Richard Corben and the legendary Oz illustrator Eric Shanower. Most of these stories have never before seen print

I Don't Know Why No One Knows About This Book...

Dream Corridor Vol 2 is a collection of Harlan Ellison's short stories in comic format. This is a real gem! Each story is drawn, inked and interpreted by different superstars of the comic scene. The interstitials with Harlan Ellison introducing each story are also entertaining and very well-drawn. Harlan Ellison is a fan of the comics medium, and it shows here in his painstaking effort to create quality versions of his stories. Some of the short stories are more interesting than others, but all of them challenge your mind. The artwork from story to story is totally different, yet uniformly good. This is one part "The Twilight Zone" one part classic sci-fi short story, and one part great artwork. Comics fans, take a break from the masked heroes and get this book. Serious sci-fi readers, open your mind and read some great short stories in a graphic novel format. Neither reader will be disappointed.
