My best friend said it in these words: "Antarctic Press does POE! Who would have imagined it?" While that publisher did not put out this book, they WERE involved in its design. Americans imitating the look of Japanese comics, from the look of how characters are drawn to the obsessively-detailed backgrounds, but in full color on slick paper in a hardbound format.
If you've read the Poe story, there's no surprises here, as far as I can tell, they use Poe's text verbatim. Not "great", but "nice", and, I imagine, appealing to younger readers, as the style manages to gloss over the seamier aspects of the story.
One point I found amusing: this version (there's around 40 different comics adaptations of this!) is set in a mansion far from any neighbors. How, then, did neighbors allegedly hear the old man's screams? (Heh)
