Stephen King's "N"

This (I'm not sure how to describe it) performance of Stephen King's short story "N" is a promotion for King's new collection of short stories, Just After Sunset. The art is by Alex Maleev and Jose Villarrubia. But the voice acting and music are so excellent, that the art is really superfluous. The first 11 mini-episodes have been posted, with future episodes coming every day through the end of the month. It's the longest I've sat still for web video in ages.



As I mentioned, the art is largely superfluous. And this isn't the first time I've been disappointed with Marvel's contribution to Stephen King stories. Wizard and Glass is one of my favorite books of all time, but the Marvel adaptation was terrible.

You can preorder Just After Sunset at Amazon.
