      It could be that my roommate at the homeless shelter was haranguing me with egregious small talk, but I thought "Screenplay of the Living Dead Man" was kind of a let down.  I also don't see why they had to make it three issues filled with reprints, but that's another story.  I could tell what the ending was going to be from the second page of the third issue, and surprisingly, Gerber failed to surprise me.  Between the book being in a modern style and remarkably light on text, I'm not sure Steve had anything significant to say about Brian, other than that he failed to change and adapt in the ways that Steve managed to do, in any but the most superficial way.  Perhaps when I have my own place again and can concentrate in a quiet area, I can read the three parts together and see if I make a better assessment of it.  My initial response, though, is that it's not Dracula in the Vatican, but it's not Steve at his best.
