About this Collection

This volume collects two literary adaptations from the Classics Illustrated series, presenting Robert Louis Stevenson's adventure novel 'Kidnapped' alongside Nikolai Gogol's short story 'The Notes of a Madman.' Published by Acclaim under their Valiant imprint, the book offers illustrated retellings of these classic works for a new generation of readers.

"Kidnapped" delivers a gripping tale of betrayal and survival, following David Balfour after he’s shanghaied into service aboard a sailing vessel by a ruthless captain. With the help of fellow captive Alan Stewart, David plots his escape and seeks justice for his uncle’s treachery. Written by John O'Rourke and Robert Louis Stevenson, and illustrated by Bob Webb with inks by David Heames and colors by Colorgraphix, this 1997 adaptation captures the novel’s suspense with striking visuals. The cover, by Scott Hampton, perfectly sets the mood for a story of danger and defiance at sea.
