In the stop-motion issues of Xenorama I have tried to show some of these adaptions. They are rare these days, though I found many of them at the San Diego Comic Con in the 90s, and gave them to a friend of mine. I bet he never read them, though I am sure he treasures the books, since they are Harryhausen items.

Mysterious Island Dell Comics
Dell Comics sure licensed a lot of adaptions of movies and TV shows. I have a few of these that I have collected here and there. I was never that impressed with the artwork, as I was preferred the dynamic stuff from Marvel and DC. I also didn't know that most of the adaptions were done before the movie was released, and generally based on scripts, rather than the actual movie. I haven't read this one, nor do I really have any urge to obtain a copy of it. I like the movie just fine these days. It's a well done adventure.
