Nice for fans of the movie - Reviewed on 2008-10-19

Well, I only got interested in this book because I'd seen the movie recently.
Although I quite liked the plot, the cover illustration is of much better quality than the contents. Wish it would've been done better. Jareth deserved it ^___^
I'd advise it to those who've already seen the movie, not the other way round.

Great graphic novel. Good service, and got the product in a short time and in great condition!
Disappointing - Reviewed on 2008-08-09

Had this been illustrated by Kouyu Shurei rather than just the cover art being done with her, I just might have endured the story. Maybe.

I dislike what was done with Sarah, I feel like the writer somewhat misinterpreted the ending of the Labyrinth when she was putting her things away. It was a symbol of growing up. Not NEEDING fantasy anymore, not necessarily disbelieving in it.

I'm also disappointed in the erratic panelling and disappointing illustration found within. It's just too...sloppy for my tastes.

I won't be picking up the next one, despite my enjoyment of Shurei's cover art.

I have been a huge fan of this movie since I was just a kid, and imagine my surprise at finding this book about 2 weeks ago. I devoured it. I have to admit, this is very much like reading a fan fiction... there are so many lines and references to the movie, I absolutely love it! (yes I can quote this movie word for word). If you love the movie, love the characters... then I think this is a fitting tribute. :-)


... and a question.... at the party there is a character (short in a traveling outfit) talking to the main pixie character. I don't remember the character from the movie... but he did look an aweful lot like traveling Matt from fraggle Rock.
It,s good,but not as much as the film - Reviewed on 2008-05-05

I'm a huge fan of Jim Henson's movies,specially The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth.I think this comic book doesn't make justice to Brian Froud wonderful design for the film.the graphic style is a bit dissapointing and the story is quite stupid ( I find Jareth's interest in Toby a bit gay),not to mention how does Sarah like or all those coarse jokes.I don't know why to do 3 more sequels to this..
