This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

I have the first three issues of that, and they are a very good attempt 
at adaptation, for one of those stories that would be so haard to adapt 
truly as to be almost impossible (like they used to say about a LOTR 
movie!), but I think it was adapted with Mr. Wolfe's help, or at least 
approval. Only the covers have that flashy style that looks more Conan. 
Unfortunately the publisher went out of business before the series 
could get any farther. I was able to get a colored page of original 
artwork from one of them from the artist a year or so ago. It details 
the finding of Triskele. My favorite sequences from the comic was 
Ultan's library and the giant undine.
