Beginning in 1941, Albert Kanter's CLASSICS ILLUSTRATED series introduced millions of young readers to "Stories by the World's Greatest Authors." Now the comics-style literary adaptations are offered again in the original format by Jack Lake Productions for a new generation to discover. Old favorites such as THE THREE MUSKETEERS, THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS, MOBY DICK, A TALE OF TWO CITIES, and THE TIME MACHINE have returned to print with vintage 1950s artwork by George Evans, John Severin, Norman Nodel, Joe Orlando, and Lou Cameron -all as vibrant as ever. For collectors, a previously unavailable British edition of THE AENEID (pencils by Reed Crandall) has been added to the revived North American series as issue No. 170. Other reissued titles include GULLIVER'S TRAVELS, HUCKLEBERRY FINN, FRANKENSTEIN, SWISS FAMILY ROBINSON, TWENTY THOUSAND LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA, TREASURE ISLAND, THE CALL OF THE WILD, THE WAR OF THE WORLDS, ROMEO AND JULIET, and A JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH. First-timers and faithful fans alike should be pleased.
