The story was adapted as a comic book with art by Tom Yeates for Eclipse Comics, with stereoscopy effects by Ray Zone. Released in April 1987, Captain EO was #18 in Eclipse’s 3-D series and was issued in two formats: regular sized, for distribution to the national network of comic book stores; and tabloid sized, sold at Disneyland as a souvenir. Yeates was contractually required to maintain the likenesses of the cards, and was given tightly-controlled slides of the film to work from. In 1989, Amazing Heroes named the comic the third best 3D comic of all time, praising Yeates’ artwork.
