The new Humble Jim Henson Comics Bundle presented by BOOM!

ETA: it turns out the novelizations are illustrated, and also have extra pages of sketches and behind-the-scenes notes from Froud himself.
The little boy in labyrinth was Brian Froud's own son Toby. Funny thing is that Mr. Froud drew the pictures of the Toby character months before his son was born but the resemblance between image and real boy caught him by surprise.
