I think it is very difficult to adapt Lovecraft's stories because of the pathological fear and madness on them. This has proven my fear to be true.
The story simply doesn't work was well was a graphic novel. To and the rough brush made the characters unrecognizable art times, some to others of completely different. The coloring was good, capturing the atmosphere.
It you've read this Love craft story, I recommend that you Silk this GN.

Tristemente decepcionante. Una novella de fama legendaria que se vuelve tediosa y repetitiva apenas transcurrido un tercio de su extensión.
Ya sabía que el Lovecraft del horror cósmico no me gusta (es, en cambio, el del Dream Cycle el que me fascina), pero no esperaba encontrarme con algo así: una historia innecesariamente extensa, carente de espíritu y con tanta flaqueza en su lógica narrativa.
No me gustó el estilo, ni las criaturas, ni las descripciones al milímetro, ni la inexplicable capacidad del narrador para descifrar la historia de una civilización desconocida tras un par de horas mirando jeroglíficos, ni el final con traumas inexplicables. No me gustó nada, bah.
Quizás el único aspecto redimible es la sección inicial, con el foco puesto en la exploración y la aventura, más que en el horror. Sería injusto decir que dicha parte no estuvo bien ejecutada.
Fuera de eso, un verdadero desencanto.

Deeply enamored with 'At the Mountains of Madness' not only for Lovecraft's enigmatic storytelling but also because of how the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game brings it to life. Stepping into the shoes of investigators, I've felt the spine-chilling suspense and cosmic horror firsthand, making this literary masterpiece a tangible, pulse-pounding experience. A match made in eldritch heaven!

Great ideas bogged down by dry bulky prose. A third, a least, could and should have bern cut to provide a more streamlined experience
