I'm guessing illustrated novel, kind of like Stardust? I liked Tales From the Crypt a lot more than I expected to, though I didn't care much for the follow up Vault of Horror. And Akira is a classic, my first introduction to a longtime love of Anime.

I feel like I may have seen some part of Tales from the Crypt but it was long ago, however looking at the cast I think I might have to track it down. Sounds like good cheesy fun.joel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282345477542778584.post-74323032667124192622015-05-21T13:56:29.515+01:002015-05-21T13:56:29.515+01:00I've only seen Hugo.
