Graphic Reviews: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? Adaptations of any beloved material are a tricky tightrope to walk. No matter what you do, you’re likely to upset someone. If you don’t stick closely enough to the source material, then fans will feel betrayed (as films like I Am Legend and World […]
