I've bounced off of every adaptation of Pratchett's work I've ever tried to watch, but I think Troll Bridge captures the tone and the story perfectly. Beautifully done.

The image is a book cover for "Good Omens: The Graphic Novel." The cover has a black background. At the top are the names of the authors: Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, and Colleen Doran. The title "Good Omens" is in large, stylized white letters in the center, with a unique design for the "O"s. The central design is an arched stained-glass-like illustration. Within the arch, there are three main figures. On the left is a man with blonde hair, wearing a white suit, holding a book and a teacup. He is standing in front of a bookcase. In the center is a young man in a red shirt and dark pants, standing on top of a globe of the Earth. A dog is at his feet. On the right is a man in a black suit, wearing sunglasses and small horns, holding a cocktail. Behind him, a vintage car is depicted. The background of the central illustration is a mix of blues, yellows, and gold, with intricate details. The bottom of the cover reads "THE GRAPHIC NOVEL" in white text. The book is on a wooden surface.
The image shows a bookmark from the "Good Omens: The Official (And Ineffable) Graphic Novel" placed on a decorated surface. The bookmark features two characters, one on the left holding a stack of books and the other on the right with arms crossed. The character on the left has blond hair, is wearing a brown suit with a green tie, and plaid pants. The character on the right is wearing a black suit and sunglasses. The background behind the characters has a gradient of colors from red to orange and the image depicts a landscape with trees and a dark sky. The title "Good Omens" is at the top of the bookmark. The bookmark is placed on the inside of the book, a red surface with a repeating gold pattern of flower shapes inside squares. The background is a wooden table.
The image displays an open comic book, the graphic novel Good Omens, with several panels depicting scenes and text. The layout is typical of comics, with rectangular panels arranged in rows. The color palette is a mix of muted and vibrant tones. There are sepia tones, along with some brighter colors like yellow and green. The top row of panels shows dynamic action scenes. One panel depicts a car explosion with a figure jumping away from the blast. The second panel shows a man in a light-colored suit looking concerned, and in the third panel, a man in a suit is leaning on the car, talking to another figure. The second row shows different scenes, including a group of people sitting at a table and talking. The bottom panels display pages of a Bible. One side shows excerpts from the Bible with illustrations, while the other side displays a shop called A.Z. Fell and Co. The text is handwritten and in a calligraphic style. The composition guides the viewer's eye through the narrative. The panels are organized in rows, leading the eye from left to right and top to bottom. The overall impression is of a complex narrative with a fantasy setting.

I started Pratchett about 12 when I was already getting over HP (still read it as everyone else was).
He was so much better than JKR in every way.

"Evil begins when you treat people as things."

I wrote it in my bio because the sentence is so meaningful to me.
It's so true, but so are a lot of other things, Terry wrote. #GNUTerry

Not to mention that the Tiffany Aching books can lead you into a very large number of other books that have aged quite well.

Omg I love this. Terry Pratchett would probably have snorted. #GNUTerry

#Discworld
#ReadingIsCool
Habe gestern ein längeres Video über Terry Pratchetts Discworld geguckt und beschlossen, dass ich dringend mal mehr davon lesen muss.
Da machen die Absurditäten wenigstens Spaß. 🤷

Vetinari For Tyrant!
#GNUTerry
Can I vote Vetinari in yet?
Sure he's a tyrant, but he made things work, moved with the will of his people, knew how shit worked, had a brain, had discipline...(etc)
OK he had people killed sometimes, but only when he couldn't make them more useful
Seems like nothing but an improvement #GNUTerry

Go on then.... #GNUTerry
Venn-Diagram of Same Vimes, Granny Weatherway, and Havelock Vetinari. Sam Vimes + Granny Weatherway "Rigid self control because they're afraid of abusing their power" Same Vimes + Havelock Vetinari "Fervent devotion to a terrible city that doesn't appreciate them" Granny Weatherway + Havelock Vetinari "You'll never see them unless they want you too"
Read the books in any order you want. If there's a character in a book you haven't heard of before, read another book, you might find them there, if not, read another book, you'll find them eventually. #GNUTerry
I can never read anything h about him without wishing he was still alive. #gnuterry
