Greetings Cinematic Fanatics, in this particular case, you Hellbound Book Hounds! The only thing more satisfying than a gorgeous and flawlessly executed standalone Slick Flick Pick is one that honors, if not exceeds, the splendor of its novel source material. Sometimes a screenplay, or film, has been novelized into a riveting read; conversely, an analogue bound book is oft condensed and converted, via a complex digital undertaking, to a cinematic adaptation. Some of the very slickest, sleekest, passionately picked flicks I've had the pleasure of enjoying originated with a Slick Page Flip I took pride in perusing. The age old debate remains as heated and vitriolic as ever, the lingering, pesky, vexing question: is the slick flick pick better than the slick page flip? Sometimes this answer proves easier than slicing your finger's flesh on the corner of a page in a Hellbound book; I offer the example of Winter's Bone, the flick is superior to the novel--but not vastly so-- while no doubt novel, source--however the Slick Page Flip of Sphere, by Michael Crichton, outshines the merit of its cinematic expression; coming from a cinephile, such as yours truly, that is a cocksure comment indeed. While I will not perform this companion, contrast/comparison analysis between the primitive novel and polished flick on every Slick Flick Pick, I will grant you the gift of an either/or/both discussion when I find the right pairing of bound paper and waxy film. Enjoy, you Hellbound Book Hounds and Cinematic Fanatics, as I investigate these various bound collections and similar comparisons to their corresponding flick-- remain on track with your deft, rapt attention in tact through an aurally pleasing perusal as you sate your curiosity with each passing slick flick/page flip pleasure on my Chemohawk rack. Snuggle the fstars up with a bloody, slick HellBound Book in your secretive nook. As you earn each paper cut, you'll feel these fully fleshed out characters in your gut. Whether binding open or cover shut, you've wed the novel--the flick serves merely as your mistress--soon to be Jack the Ripper's fresh victim--slut. Here, we unwind some novel binding for this is where final cut greets papercut! The Slick Flick Pick we will be discussing: Pick 53: Slick Flick Pick: Jack the "Stripper" Ripper--Dark Vigilante in a White City (Playing Cat, Bat and Mouse in a Slaughterhouse); (Gotham by Gaslight, 2018) and that graphic novel animated adaptation is richer, scarier, more vile, riveting and aesthetically pleasing than the original graphic read, the plot focuses more on its own narrative need, the most unexpected victim is cornered and lethally made to bleed, this book is more about Gotham's greed, less about one disturbed and unrighteous crusader who in tangling with Batman in brutal brawls and dirty boxing often takes the lead. Our protagonist, the dark knight, is too slow in steampunk garb and too clueless to play the savior in time, the fog filled streets of Gotham prove an unsafe place where streets run the color of the painted whores lips: blood fstars red.
