The Man Who Fell to Earth Reviews

A classic tale about an alien who is used and corrupted by the worst elements of human society, The Man Who Fell to Earth is a memorable graphic novel whose cautionary notes still ring true. - Foreword Reviews Roeg's cult classic is more influential on comics than even most classic comics. It's a joy to see it interpreted by two of comics smartest new creators. Absolutely unearthly. - Kieron Gillen
