INTERMEDIATE FICTION
(4) 4-6 Graphic Planet: Graphic Horror series. Illustrated by Jason Ho. These comic-book versions of classic and original horror tales are generally well served by the format (though the font is tiny). The dark-toned illustrations help build suspense, and characters are clearly delineated as good or evil. Readers unfamiliar with the originals may be inspired to seek them out. Most stories feature violence but not an abundance of gore. Review covers these Graphic Planet: Graphic Horror titles: Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, The Creature from the Depths, Mummy, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, and Werewolf.
