There are some books that aremeant to be turned into graphic novels and Coraline fits the bar. I bought this over the weekend at Fully Booked in Rustan’s Makati for P640.00. The imagery – especially that of the “button eyed other mother” is disturbing. The graphic novel is illustrated by the award winning P. Craig Russell, who also did Ring of the Nibelung and The Dream Hunters.

I like P Craig Rusell’s art. But i Find Neil Gaiman’s best work was and still with the Sandman series
i read the non-graphic version and it was pretty freaky!
Dave McKean would have been a good choice, too. Just look at what he did with MirrorMask.
