I wanted more from this book, probably because I watched the film first and I'm a big fan of it. Reading the book after made it feel at times like it was a rough draft for the film. A starting point for visuals that would later be refined for the film. There are some wonderfully drawn panels but there are also some that I felt looked rushed. This is one of the rare occasions where I feel the film is better than the book.
