"Mork & Mindy: A Video Novel" is a comic-book like photo-adaptation of "The Mork & Mindy Special," the first official episode of the series. Richard Anobile adapted it straight from the episode, which was penned by Dale MCraven. Photonovels became popular in the now-primitive era right before the swift rise in popularity of the VCR. The stills and conversation-bubbles follow the premiere practically verbatim, but little bits of dialogue are missing, Mindy's grandmother is omitted along with the sequence featuring Fonzie and Laverne in their dream-sequence crossover from "Happy Days" and "Laverne & Shirley" (bypassing the cost of additional character licensing).
