Write Up Out Of Books The Stand: Captain Trips (The Stand: Graphic Novels #1)

This book accomplishes an almost impossible feat, translating the epic 'Stand' novel into comic form. Absolutely brilliant and keeps remarkably true to it's original.



This is the first book in the series that covers the very beginnings of Stephen King's The Stand in graphic novel form. This was so much better than I expected. After reading the book (loved it) and watching the tv miniseries (which I found decent but lacking is so many ways), it was refreshing to read this version of the story and brings back all the details that I had read so long ago in the book that never made it to the television version. It tells so much in a few panels without any major

The Stand has always been one of my all time favorite books, and this adaptation was fantastic. "Captain Trips" covers probably about the first 8th of the book, if that, but and it manages to show a large chunk of the details and story that happen in that section of the book, and does it in a way that doesn't feel like there are huge gaps. I was quite impressed. I knew that there would be a lot left out, and I had prepared myself to be disappointed in the way it was done, but obviously, I was

When it comes to being true to the source material, this is about as good as it gets! I have read The Stand twice and this volume faithfully follows the first 100 to 150 pages or so. And, not only is it faithful, but the adaptation is very good is well. Being true to the original book does not necessarily mean that the transition is smooth, followable, etc. But, this was done very well.And, the art is pretty good, too. I was joking with my wife (who has also read The Stand) that this is probably

The first five issues in Marvel's adaptation of Stephen King's famous novel The Stand, are contained within the first collection, Captain Trips. A virus is let loose from a top secret government facility causing people to exhibit symptoms in line with the flu. However, this strain is 100% fatal. Following the lives of a few select individuals who appear to be immune, King lays the groundwork for the ultimate battle between good and evil.Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa does a fine job adapting the source

This is a good faithful start to the King classic. The art is very good, the story quite streamlined but not divergent, and it gives us a very good graphic look at the even more graphic deaths.Timely, no? Well, Captain Trips is slightly more deadly than just about anything out there. It's good to think about how bad it could really get and be thankful we're not losing everything now.
