a fun graphic depiction of the Escapist. It adheres closely to Kavalier & Clay canon. Nothing breathtaking that wasn't done in Kavalier and Clay proper, but a joy to see the story laid out as a real comic. ( )

Michael Chabon is one of my favorite authors, but I don't really have much interest in comic books or graphic novels. This is the only book of his besides Kavalier and Clay that I just couldn't get interested in. It's not the fault of the book, I just don't care for the genre ( )

I read the Adventures of Kavalier and Clay a million years ago. It never occurred to me that the Escapist comics would be published. There is no cohesive storyline in the book. It is just a bunch of different versions of the The Escapist, all of them interesting and with their own merits. There is also a great manga version of the Escapist and two Luna Moth stories that were incredible. The explanations given by various authors regarding the series help put everything in perspective.

So I just read this again and for the most part my opinion stayed the same. The only change I would say is that not every story got explanations and sometimes I was curious as to which age each story came from or if I had the correct publisher and was matching the age correctly. ( )
