Courtoria bought me this crack!fic!manga as a going away gift. I'm going to love every minute of it, if only because I know that there's this line in it: "All right, Harry Potter, go to the Principal's office."

This was the crackiest thing I have ever read. The book ends with a bit of a cliff-hanger, with the readers full of burning questions. The authors are very nice to even list those burning questions for the readers at the end of the story. They include: "What causes the L...more

Interesting sequel to a movie I haven't seen in eons. But it's rekindled my interest in Labyrinth. Manga-style artwork, but left to right which I personally prefer to read. Story concerns Toby, who was a baby in the movie but is now a teen (his older sister Sarah is an adult and keeps an eye on him), and has no idea that he's being groomed to be the next Goblin King. He doesn't even know there is a labyrinth or any of that weird fantastical stuff; he's just trying to make it through school, but ...more

While this manga does a great job of clinging to the spirit of the film, I found the story so far to be boring. I thought it was cute but I ended the book thinking I just didn't care if I never found out what happened next. The cover, however, is worth buying the book in the first place. Jareth anime-style...

I got addicted to Labyrinth from my friend RohY...I know you're most likely reading this so I blame you. XP

I loved Vol1 SO MUCH!!! read it! it's SOOOO GOOD!!!!

What happens to Toby after he's grown up? Does Sarah ever return to the Labyrinth and Jareth?

I squeeed out loud in the book store when I ran across this. I LOVED Jim Henson's Labyrinth, and was thrilled with the possibilty of continuing the adventure. And mostly, it didn't disappoint!

I'm only about 10 pages in, but already I love it. It's following the style of the movie....I've seen what Toby's 'line' is going to be....just like Sara had a line. I can't wait to see where this one goes.

First graphic novel I've ever read, so I decided to go with something somewhat familiar. Interesting format, but I don't think I'll be reading much more than Volume 2 of this one.

... I hate how the cover is so beautiful but the inside art is armature. The plot is predictable, the characters without personality - a disgraceful sequel to the movie.

It was cool. Not the best illustrations in the inside but worth a read. I would have liked it if the artist for the cover was the artist for the comics.

If you're thinking about reading this comic because you're feeling nostalgic for the amazing move, DON'T.

Poor art, poor dialog, poor characters. The Dark Crystal manga is so much better. Such a dissapointment.
