5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting format for a King story collection., February 20, 2002

By	Dale Renton-Magill (Terrebonne, OR USA) - See all my reviews

This is a comic book version of the screenplay based on Stephen King stories. The drawing and story included in the book hold true to the movie and the plots of the different stories included. King's love of the macabre and unusual twists comes through even in the abbreviated version of these stories.

If you like the movie, then this book is a must have for any King fan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Creepshow, January 30, 2002

By	A 9-year old reader "jowarner" (Gloucester, England) - See all my reviews

The creepshow comic book came in the mail today. I didn't quite know if it was really it because I only ordered it last Saturday.
I wasn't disappointed at all. You can see how they try to make the characters in the movie look the same as in the comic book. The art work was good. The first one was Father's Day which was exactly like the movie in every way. The second story was the Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill which could have been a little bit better. The other stories were good especially

Something to Tide You Over which I thought was a bit funny.
GET IT!!!!!!It's a great paperback...

5.0 out of 5 stars ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! - You HAVE to buy this book!!!!, October 4, 2001

By	nick murgatroyd "murga" (North Yorkshire, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

I ordered CREEPSHOW through amazon Z shops a few weeks ago after much deliberation and I finnally have it. The comic book is just like the movie in every single little detail. The charachters in the comic book look just like the charachters in the movie. Especially Leslie Nielsen, Ted Danson and Hal Holbrook. The book is hosted by, 'The Creep' an undead host who is constantly chortling away as he introduces and concludes each of the 5 short stories. Surprisingly, 'The lonesome death of Jordy Verrill'(which is the worst story in the movie) is most probably one of the best in the comic book!! In the book, my fave stories are, 'Something to tide you over', 'Father's day' and 'The lonesome death of Jordy Verill'. With a fantastic script by the master of the macabre, Stephen King and stunning art by Bernie Wrightson, CREEPSHOW is an absolute must have for horror fans everywhere. If you thought the EC's were good, you will LOVE CREEPSHOW. Get it NOW!!! Trust me, you will not be dissapointed!!!
