Marvel Super Special 22 It's amazing how Marvel was able to take brilliant source material like [b:Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?|7082|Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?|Philip K. Dick|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1327865673s/7082.jpg|830939] and Blade Runner and produce such a remarkably lame illustrated "novel". The art, the writing...just astonishingly bad. Do yourself a favor and go to the originals, not this churned-out piece of garbage. This book was most likely aimed at boys born round-about 1970 who would have been around 12 to 13 years old when Blade Runner was released in the cinema, and subsequently too young to secure a seat; as such what you have here is basically a comic book version of the (15) rated movie with mild nudity sanitised out - which only enforces my earlier claim that the book was aimed at children rather than a more mature market. Stan Lee's name is also used on the inside cover in order to give the book more status in the total absence of any mention at all of Philip K. Dick anywhere! Harrison Ford gets a mention on the back cover naturally. Such publications were popular in the days when films took an eon to arrive on TV and then only at Christmas; so, the only way to 'view' it was either a dodgy 100th generation tape from the local pirate video shop, MAD's own spoof version, or if you were very lucky a reasonably faithful facsimile such as this one for Blade Runner. I'll warn you though that the artwork is about as dynamic as a 16th century woodcut and the text is only there to spoon feed the reader the original script in the least thought provoking way. As such you finish the book feeling rather hollow and unfulfilled. A nice item to stick on the shelf of a Blade Runner memorabilia collector's hoard perhaps? Good news is that as a result most copies you will come across are likely to be pretty crisp and little read, as my own copy certainly is. Saying all that, I'm sure I'd have probably sold the shirt off of my back for a copy of this book back when I was 13 ! Today, I'd recomment you save your time and just watch Ridley Scott's movie instead. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Early in the 21 Century, the Tyrell Corporation advanced robot evolution to the Nexus phase - creating artificial beings virtually identical to humans - known as replicates. After Replicates were declared illegal on Earth, special police operatives - called Blade Runners - had orders to kill or 'retire' any trespassers on detection. Aahna 'Ash' Ashina of the Los Angeles Police Department is assigned to investigate the disappearance of Isobel and Cleo Selwyn, the wife and daughter of business tycoon Alexander Selwyn. Ash finds the debris of Isobel's spinner in a downtown slum, along with the body of Selwyn's chauffeur. Before she can investigate further, Ash's cybernetic back brace shuts down and she collapses. Meanwhile, Isobel and Cleo, alive and alone, make their way through the rain soaked city, searching for a contact that will lead them to safety, far from Alexander Selwyn… Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
