ALTERED STATES
Essentially Dr Jekyll And Mr Hyde if it'd been written by Carlos Castenada, Ken Russell's characteristically unrestrained take on a script by Network's Paddy Chayefsky is a bracing mix of acid trip visuals and hoary old tropes.

THE UNCHOSEN
ISSUES 1-4 While comparisons can be drawn with his current work on Marvel's Uncanny X-Men - or indeed, other schools for gifted youngsters, as seen in Wednesday or Harry Potter David Marquez's first series as a writer/artist excels not only with its typically lush artwork, but also its compelling storyline.
