I'm familiar with the 2002 Vertigo Graphic Novel that G Vallejo mentioned, simply titled Lovecraft.
You're right.  I don't know where I got 1994 from.  I just edited my previous post.



I tend to agree with you in regards the idea of making Lovecraft out to be a swashbuckling adventurer.  However, I suppose it depends on context.  If a parody seems to work in a certain light it may not be so bad. I don't know...  He'd probably lose his mind is what'd really happen.  I'll take your word for it and probably go with Necronauts 1st even though Vertigo's "Lovecraft" is something I'd also like to check out.

As for political correctness issue, I agree with you.  I actually just got done reading the "Red Hook" story by H.P. Lovecraft; a story with some racism that he later said he wasn't too proud of.  I've just ordered "The Courtyard Companion Edition" by Alan Moore (includes both the adaptation and original prose story that appeared in the "Starry Wisdom" anthology).  I'm also picking up issues of a sequel to the courtyard called Neonomicon (issue #2 is set to come out this week).  Both these adaptations are set in Red Hook; a section of Brooklyn where Lovecraft lived temporarily being driven crazy by the seediness of the area.
