Ray Bradbury's Something Wicked This Way Comes: The Authorized Adaptation by Ray Bradbury
4.0
This authorized adaptation fixed everything that was wrong with the source novel. While I love Ray Bradbury, I found Something Wicked This Way Comes to be overwritten and unnecessarily dense, to the point of being hard to follow at points.
The graphic novel was none of those things, and the remaining story, distilled as it was, was breathtaking and terrifying. It was also beautifully illustrated in black-and-white, and I especially appreciated how the borders were white for the daytime scenes and black for the nighttime scenes.
