I was a huge fan of the original BRANDON LEE movie and bought the soundtrack and later the TRDPBK. <br /><br />I remember being disappointed by the book. The artwork was great but the story meandered quite a bit for me. James O'Barr gave us too many scenes where nothing happened as if he was demonstrating that he was a mixed media darling! I thought he was showing off before I learned that his motivation for creating the story was more therapeutic than artistic, so I forgave him very easily.<br /><br />Twenty years later, I think it's still an important work, warts and all and in my opinion, the movie will remain a classic for many reasons: Brandon Lee's seminal and last performance, as a super-hero story and last but not least, as one of the best comic book adaptations for film!<br /><br />-LEADER DESSLOK-Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-7425788002319903162013-10-04T23:35:43.267-05:002013-10-04T23:35:43.267-05:00Kaor -
