The Crumb work aside, I always am a little sad to see books turned into comics the same way I am TV series episodes turned into books because the translation into a different media usually doesn't work well. I once picked up a 'manga' version of Hamlet. They'd condensed his best soliloquy down to little more than "To be or not to be- That is the question. To die, to sleep. To sleep perchance to dream. Thus conscience makes cowards of us all."
