Just awesome
I love the characters, especially Croup and Vandemar. They're simply terrifying--not unlike Michael Myers or Jason. Unstoppable and inescapable enemies. At the same time are totally different than Michael and Jason because they're alive (sort of) and they're fun. They are the clown characters of the story along with being the most dangerous enemies imaginable. Other authors have had bad guys like this, but not the equal of Croup and Vandemar. I just don't understand how Gaiman can make utter sociopaths so witty and amusing and give you nightmares at the same time. The whole setting and story of London Below is awesome. Such a fantastic idea. This book is quirky and twisted in the very best way.

Great book
I had read this book many years ago and for some reason I wanted to read it again and own it myself. Not disappointed as it was as good as the first time. The story telling was great and the drawings were spectacular. Some may not like it but I think it’s one of the best graphic novels I’ve had the pleasure to read.

Great Adaptation of a Great Story
If you're not aware, this is a graphic novel adaptation of a novelization of a television series :) I've not seen the series, and not read the book in quite some time, but, I can say that this is a rousing story with great visualization! If you're turned off by explicit violence this is not a book for you.

Great Story by Neil Gaiman
Great Graphic novel but definitely too pricey, but I just couldn't resist. Say the movie...

Love it.
This is the 3rd format in which I've read this story. Always gripping. Love it. I'll probably read it again and again.

A nice additional to my Neverwhere collection
This is the graphic novel overexertion of the screenplay and novel. The characters are much more developed in the novel and the actors portrayal even from long ago added nuances. Still my goal was to ad this to my Gaiman collection and I am quite happy with it.

I never imagined that!
I read the book before I saw the comic book. I enjoyed it even more. Great graphics, imaginative layout of panels, made the characters new and different. You can't get the feel of the story without the illustrations.

Work of Art
I have read the original book and I know the artist has taken some liberties from the original descriptions but for once I am glad because he took it to another twisted and otherworldly level, one Gaiman can only approve of.Some of the illustrations reminded me of dreams I've had, maybe this is a real place?

Incredible graphic representation
Yet another rendition of Neverwhere. Every time Neil Gaiman revisits this story, a little more is added. Love the TV series (although dated in the special effects dept), the radio adaption is spectacular (how did they get such a fantastic cast) and the graphic novel is an equally fantastic conception. My compliments to Glen Farby for his interpretation, Tanya and Richard Horie for their perfect colouring, and Todd Klein for lettering that I can easily read and enhances the visual experience. Some incredible visual ideas from Doors keyhole eye to the Marquis dark visage...my compliments and thanks.

Slight changes from the book
Artwork good. Follows the storey although i had the imagery of the radio cast in my head when i read this. Very surprised that the Black Friars weren't black though! Good book

Great
Read the novel by Gaiman and couldn't get enough of it - love it! However, this graphical adaptation is quite enjoyable too.

A real storyteller
You know how most writers put so much extra detail/padding into a story so it's way longer than it needs or deserves? Well Neil Giaman isn't one of those. His stories are for those who really enjoy the art of story telling and reading aloud to others.
