I... I don't know how to feel about this.... Shocked? Scared? Slightly disgusted? Did anyone else know about this?

I saw that in the comic store the other day. The art looked nice, but when I started to flip through and read it, it was kinda boring. Then again, I'm one of the few people that doesn't like Labyrinth >_>

"Sometimes we don't present the Gospel well enough for the non-elect to reject it."
- John MacArthur

"In the total expanse of the human life, there is not a single square inch of which Christ, who alone is sovereign, does not declare, 'That is mine'."
- Abraham Kuyper

"God the great Creator of all things doth uphold, direct, dispose, and govern all creatures, actions, and things, from the greatest even to the least, by His most wise and holy providence, according to His infallible foreknowledge and the free and immutable counsel of His own will, to the praise of the glory of His wisdom, power, justice, goodness, and mercy."
- Westminister Confession of Faith (Chapter 5, Section 1)

"The wisdom of God has found a way for the love of God to deliver sinners from the wrath of God all the while upholding the righteousness of God!!"
- John Piper

"Grace is the pleasure of God to magnify the worth of God by giving sinners the right and power to delight in God without obscuring the glory of God!"
-John Piper

"The very One from Whom we need to be saved, is the One Who has saved us."
- R.C. Sproul

"All of Christian life is ceaseless worship of God the Father, through the mediatorship of God the Son, by the indwelling power of God the Spirit, doing what God commands in Scripture, not doing what God forbids in Scripture, in culturally contextualized ways, for the furtherance of the Gospel, when both gathered for adoration, and scattered for action, in joyous response to God's glorious grace."
- Mark Driscoll

"Believers do not pray with the view of informing God about things unknown to Him, or of exciting Him to do His duty, or of urging Him as though He were reluctant. On the contrary, they pray in order that they may arouse themselves to seek Him, that they may exercise their faith in meditating on His promises, that they may relieve themselves from their anxieties by pouring them into His bosom; in a word, that they may declare that from Him alone they hope and expect, both for themselves and for others, all good things."
- Martin Luther

"I have to tell you first that I am ready to die. I have put my affairs in order. Your supreme weapon is killing. My supreme weapon is dying, because when you kill me, people all over Romania will read my books and believe on the God that I preach - even more than they do now."
- Dr. Joseph Ton, the exiled Romanian pastor (quoted by James Montgomery Boice)

"The best prayer I ever prayed had enough sin in it to condemn the whole world."
- John Bunyan

"If the Christian has lost sight of Calvary, that shows that he has lost his way."
- J.I. Packer[/SIZE]

I rather liked that movie (although I didn't care for David Bowie's costume). I might check it out.

Why can't they ever just leave a good thing alone? The entire premise of that manga defeats absolutely everything Sarah worked for. Which REALLY bothers me, since her final speech to Jareth ('You have no power over me') has huge personal meaning for me.

I think I'm going to treat this like Princess Diaries 2 and pretend it doesn't exist.

The very fact that such a thing exists amuses me. After reading through it in a bookstore, however, neither the story nor the artwork interested me very much.

If I recall correctly, there will be a prequel manga to The Dark Crystal coming out soon, too.
Let others believe in the God who brings men to trial and judges them. I shall cling to the God who resurrects the dead.

Well, the art looks nice...However, since I've never seen Labyrinth and have no knowledge of the storyline, I can't say whether I'm excited/disappointed/etc. I can, however, say that I think it's stupid to make a manga version of an American movie. I'm curious to see what they'll do with the manga version of The Dark Crystal, though. I have good memories of that movie, though I've only seen it once. ^-^

Yeah, I'm kinda looking forward to the Dark Crystal manga too. I think it was a better movie than Labyrinth, but that's just me.

I saw a preview of it online...I dind't think it was that bad!! I have been looking all over the place for it...but I can't find it in any bookstores! I looked in St. Louis, Kansas City...at my own bookstore... *sob*

I might have to special order it, but I don't like doing that, it ruins the fun.
