Shrews (1959), The Mole People (1956), The Nasty Rabbit (1965), and Night of the Lepus (1972). In 1989, Gnaw: Food of the Gods, Part 2 was released, written by Richard Bennett and directed by Damian Lee. Dealing with a pack of giant lab rats wreaking havoc on a college campus, it was even further removed from the book than Gordon's attempts. Comic book adaptions The Food of the Gods was first adapted for the comics in January 1961, for Classics Illustrated #160, with a painted cover by Gerald McCann, script by Alfred Sundel and interior artwork by Tony Tallarico. The giant wasps were depicted in only two panels and the giant rats do not appear at all. A more dynamic and dramatic version, "told in the mighty Marvel manner," was found in Marvel Classics Comics #22 (Marvel Comics 1977). Writer Doug Moench greatly improved on the Classics Illustrated script, while Sonny Trinidad produced new artwork. "Deadly Muffins" in Secrets of Sinister House #13 (DC Comics 1973) is an uncredited version of the story written by John Albano and drawn by Alfredo Alcala.
