“Labyrinth”

Marvel Super Special #40 brings Jim Henson's beloved 1986 fantasy film Labyrinth to the comics page in an official adaptation scripted by Sid Jacobson with art by John Buscema. Ted CoConis's cover painting sets the stage beautifully: the imposing Goblin King looms large at the center, holding a glowing crystal orb, while a young woman in an ethereal white gown stands before him and a wild menagerie of fantastical creatures crowds the edges — all with a castle and labyrinthine maze shimmering in the background. It's a rich, atmospheric portrait of a film full of wonder, brought to comics life by a genuinely talented creative team.
