Great Novelisations (no. 1 in a series)

I've got to get this book...

"...No Mickey funeral scene, no faltering self-confidence, no "Eye of the Tiger," no getting back to basics, no final conflict between good and evil, just one fight that's over in two pages! It's terribly distressing to see truly great works of art butchered in this manner. Even the cover features Clubber Lang (played in the movie by the great character actor of the 80's, Mr. T) instead of Rocky himself. Are they telling us that Clubber Lang is the hero here?"
