Volume 1 - 1st printing. "The Wind in the Willows!" By Kenneth Grahame. Adapted by Michel Plessix. The Deluxe line within the Classics Illustrated relaunch presents full-length adaptations, true and respectful to the originals, with the expansive number of pages allowing for the entire novel to be fully adapted. The first volume presents graphic novelist Michel Plessix's lush adaptation of The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame. The artwork is in aquarelle, with thin, precise, detailed lines. Plessix breathes life into Mole, Rat, and Toad (of Toad Hall) as they picnic on the riverbank, indulge in Toad's latest fad, and get lost in Wild Wood. The pacing is masterful - each panel lingers just long enough to make you appreciate the simple pleasures of life as the original novel. Hardcover, 144 pages, 6 1/2-in. x 9 1/2-in., full color. Cover price $17.95.
