Irwin Allen's legendary Sci-Fi property returns! Before being prematurely canceled during its third season, LOST IN SPACE had several screenplays lined up and ready to film. These are those lost episodes, adapted for comics from screenwriter Carey Wilber's original teleplays! First up is "The Curious Galactics", a three-part tale that sends John Robinson, Will Robinson, and Major Don West from a run-of-the-mill radar scouting mission into a potentially deadly alien maze.
The pacing is slow -- it's a half-hour show being spread across at least two (perhaps more) comic books. However, the feel is spot-on, owing to the use of the original teleplay's dialogue and the beautiful panel work of Kostas Pantoulas. If you're a fan of the original series, you need to get out to your local comics shop and pick up a copy or three of IRWIN ALLEN'S LOST IN SPACE: THE LOST ADVENTURES #1 from American Gothic Press.

Irwin Allen's Lost in Space: The Lost Adventure is commendable as a place for an unproduced. TV script. It remains to be seen if the rest of the story can take full advantage of the medium or if the book will flounder due to its small screen origin. Read Full Review
