Is anybody else reading these? I've been quite impressed with this line so far. This is Marvel's newer line of books where they are adapting "classics" into comic book format. Not really a new idea, but I think they're doing a very good job with it. So far, I think they've done Treasure Island, The Last of the Mohicans and The Man in the Iron Mask. Currently they're mid-way through Moby Dick, The Picture of Dorian Grey, and The Illiad. I think all of them have been at least good, but I really thought that Treasure Island was fantastic. And Moby Dick is shaping up that way as well.
Any one else with any other thoughts here?

Sounds like a redoing of the old Classics Illustrated Comics from the 40's-60's.
Marvel had a comic called Marvel Classic Comics in the 70's that reprinted several of the old CI issues, too.
