Novelist Anne Rice states, 'I remember reading Jane Eyre in the Classics comics and how much I loved the details and seeing the madwoman in the attic in those little panels and seeing the whole novel play out. What always drew me were very detailed, representational drawings, rather than something abstract. I wanted to see a lot of richness and a lot of depth.' Classics Illustrated graphic novels, she said, 'Have a freedom that is all their own to create an entire universe in detail fairly inexpensively, compared to a film.'
