roshangar asked: Will we be seeing art of the equipment soon?

Sebastien replied: Yes ! new art will be released Nov. 24th on Newsarama.com along with the cover of issue one.

roshangar asked: When and how was this project born?

Sebastien replied: VERY good question! I was lucky enough to see the movie in theatres when I was 9. So you all know my age now so GB has been, like most of you, a very dear movie to me. I thought it would be cool to do a GB comic book. As simple as it sounds, I knew the 20th anniversary was coming, so I wanted it to begin in advance. So I contacted Sony, presented a business proposal, and here we are ! Sounds easy but its not. I am greatfull to Sony because they are great people to work with.

Does this mean that we're only getting four issues? Or it's issue one of a four issue story arc?

Number two, bud. Depending on how well the issues sell, it will be an ongoing comic series.

I can't remember correctly, but I thought Sebastien said we'd be getting a minimum of 11 issues next year, and as long as they sell well enough we can expect to see a new issue every month or so after that.

He said dependant on sales we may see 11 issues.

Is anyone else gonna be as sad as me and buy 2 copies of each issue (one for reading, one for keeping as a collection)?

I knew I read “11 issues” and “depending on sales”…
