A fascinating piece of artwork from William Gibson aleph, which is an "essential information collection about contemporary writer William Gibson".The graphic novel covers only the first third of 'Neuromancer' (chapters 'Chiba City Blues' and 'The Shopping Expedition'). It is quite well done, and the cyberspace sequences look very good. Apparently it was planned to be the first in a series of which the remaining chapters have been cancelled.
Gibson, apparently an avid comic fan during his youth, said that he is satisfied with the graphic novel and that it looks pretty much like what he imagined in 1983. He also said that if any of his work was adapted for the big screen, he would be happy if it would come as close to his original intention as the graphic novel.
