Weinbaum’s “A Martian Odyssey”, adapted by Ben Avery and George Sellas, Arthur Conan Doyle’s Professor Challenger in “The Disintegration Machine” by Rod Lott and Roger Langridge, and a Lord Dunsany tale adapted by Antonella Caputo and Brad Teare.

GC: Oscar Wilde,
from AV Club, Feb 2009,
review by Noel Murray
“One of the Eureka Productions series’ best, featuring lengthy, well-rendered adaptations of four Wilde stories. The best of the bunch is Alex Burrows and Lisa K. Weber’s take on The Picture Of Dorian Gray, which plays up the tale’s gothic horror elements and demimonde decadence.”
