William Shakespeare's Strange Case of Doctor Jekyll and Mister Hyde

The blend of classic verse with sci-fi action added a new layer to familiar scenes. Did the poetic style amplify the heroism or make it feel more distant?

The parody feels both clever and respectful—I'm curious whether the author was a longtime fan of Shakespeare, Star Wars, or both.

Some of the jokes rely on understanding Shakespearean language, so I wonder if it still resonates with readers new to that era's plays.
