John Birmingham/Ryan Vella - He Died With A Felafel In His Hand

The whole graphic novel thing has largely passed me by, even though in many ways I'm exactly the type who ought to be right into them, and this '10th anniversary comic edition' of Birmingham's supposedly iconic book was no exception in leaving me distinctly underwhelmed; this despite my impression that the comic format is probably quite appropriate to the novel itself (which I admittedly haven't read in its original form). Kind of funny in places, but I didn't feel that I got anything out of it.
