Comic Book Adaptation
"Hinterlands" was adapted and illustrated as a comic in 1995 by Vancouver artist Gavin Lonergan. The William Gibson Aleph has called the comic an "interesting evocation of the fake paradise of the short story". The comic was twenty pages in length, anthologised in two sections which appeared in Freeflight #5 and #6, Dec/Jan 95 and Apr/May 95. The look of the comic is similar to Moebius and Gibson was directly involved in the adaptation process.

Famous quotes containing the words comic, book and/or adaptation:
“A guide book is addressed to those who plan to follow the traveler, doing what he has done, but more selectively. A travel book, in its purest, is addressed to those who do not plan to follow the traveler at all, but who require the exotic or comic anomalies, wonders and scandals of the literary form romance which their own place or time cannot entirely supply.”
—Paul Fussell (b. 1924)
“We have left undone those things which we ought to have done; and we have done those things which we ought not to have done.”
—Morning Prayer, General Confession, Book of Common Prayer (1662)
“Whatever there be of progress in life comes not through adaptation but through daring, through obeying the blind urge.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
