COMIC BOOKS

_Graphic Classics: Mark Twain_. Edited by Tom Pomplun. Eureka Productions,
2007. Second edition. Pp. 144. 7 x 10", paperback, b&w, 4 color cover.
$11.95. ISBN 0-9787919-2-4. This book is the revised second edition of the
eighth volume in the Graphic Classics series of comic adaptations of
literature. This edition, which replaces the 2004 Mark Twain edition,
features "Tom Sawyer Abroad." An illustration from that story appears on
the cover of this edition. "Tom Sawyer Abroad" replaces several works which
were dropped in this revised second edition to make room for the new
material. Thus, comic book collectors will need both editions to insure
having the complete run of Mark Twain's stories converted to comics by
Graphic Classics.
