    I'm looking for Lovecraft inspired comics and particularly adaptations of his work into the Graphic Novel form.

    can you recommended any?

    Self-Made Hero did a very nice adaptation of At The Mountains Of Madness recently.

    Beyond that, the only thing I've seen that was actually worth reading (IMO) was the Image miniseries "The Strange Adventures Of H P Lovecraft". There are an awful lot of Cthulhu-based comics out there, and a good few older adaptations, but the majority of them fail to capture any of the atmosphere or eerie dread that made Lovecraft's stories so enjoyable.

    I checked out some of the artwork for "The Strange Adventures of H.P. Lovecraft" and from what I seen it looks great, I think I'll pick up a copy, even if the artwork turns out to be the only positive it would be worthwhile.

    I'll read up on the Self Made Hero adaptation too.

    thanks
