    Green Lantern is a great adaptaion of E.E. "Doc" Smith's Lensman books.

      I didn't know A Boy & His Dog had been adapted for comics.

      I enjoyed the book & to a lesser extent the '70s film...
      WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

          Marvel's Worlds Unknown did some good stuff in the early 70s..IT by Sturgeon, and Killdozer. Same with Unknown Worlds of Science Fiction the b/wmag did a good Day of the Triffids.

              Uses the original text of PKD. Although they are obviously trying to graft visuals that evoke Bladerunner without having to pay the Bladerunner license.

                Oh thanks I always preferred the book. Bladerunner is about as close to Androids as Running man is to the stephen king short story
