Working on Edward Martin's feature-length animated adaptation of The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath is something that I'm extremely proud of, and I've always wished that I would have been aware of Jason B. Thompson comic book series on which it's based, but sadly, it was sold out before I even knew it existed! Self-published in the late 90's, the series was a 122-page, five-issue all-ages adaptation of Dream-Quest, drawing inspiration from underground comics and classic children's books and the "naive fairy-tale wonder-spirit" that Lovecraft, in his own words, was trying to capture...
Now all these years later, Jason has announced his intentions to re-release the comics as a graphic novel including all five issues along with his adaptations of the Dreamlands stories Celephais, The White Ship and The Strange High House in the Mist! It will also include a map of the Dreamlands and concept art...176 pages all told...
You can read the new comics; Celephais, The White Ship and The Strange High House in the Mist at mockman.com...
Jason is currently trying to raise funds for the project on Kickstarter, which you can check out here...
(Thanks to Jason B. Thompson)
