Presentation of a Jim Henson film produced by Jim Henson and Gary Kurtz directed by Jim Henson and Frank Oz with David Lazer as Executive Producer story by Jim Henson screenplay by David Odell and conceptual design by Brian Froud ISBN: 0-939766-23-X I counted 64 pages 16 pages contain full page images from the movie along with some smaller pictures of Brian Froud's original artwork for the movie! 11" x 8" x 1/4" (pbk)

I'm really glad I have this book not only to see a comics adaptation of The Dark Crystal, but also because of the 16 pages of photos taken directly from the movie along with smaller pictures of Brian Froud's original work for the movie. This book is faithful to both the movie and the standard comic stylization.
