A bit "light" in my opinion - as far as the Mignola cannon... but it is a one-off. So it's not as deep or meaningful as the mythology twisting of the "Hellboy" world. But it's amusing, and beautiful. There's an odd take on "Jack and the Beanstalk" worked in. And the "Prisoner of Mars" was a rather more steampunky than the stupid "Corsets and Clockwork" YA 'steampunk' romance anthology I just read was. (But that's neither here nor there.)
Guess there was a Sci-Fi channel (excuse me: SYFY) pilot made of this back in 2006. I haven't watched it yet, but it's interesting. Too bad it didn't get picked up. Ah well
