Graphic Classics: H.G. Wells
by Nicola Cuti et al.
Eureka publishers have released a series of Graphic Classics trade paperbacks,
each issue of which collects together comic book versions of stories, usually from a
single classic author such as Edgar Allan Poe, Arthur Conan Doyle, H.P. Lovecraft, Jack
London, and more. And, yes, the series includes an H.G. Wells issue (#3) which has
undergone three editions, each of which has presented new black and white Time
Machine material.
My favorite is the Wilson version (3rd edition), which has a steampunkish Eerie Comics feel and an extended stand-alone version with ten additional pages. My
I cannot help but wonder. Will he return? It may be he was swept back into the past. Or
did he go forward into one of the nearer ages, when men are still men, but with the
wearisome problems of our own age solved? I may never know.
