Update

Some comic, book, movie updates today:

 

1) The first full-length chapter book in 2009 should hit stores around June.

 

2) There will be at least three Level 3 readers next year.

 

3) Plans are for five comics next year, same size as this year. We will start with a new issue #1, which is already written.

 

4) Story will flow like this -- January comic, March comic, then the first chapter book, which will lead into the July comic. So the chapter book will not duplicate story from the comics or vice versa.

 

5) On a disappointing note, November 2008 will be Leigh Gallagher's last issue. Leigh has a lot of projects going on and felt that he did not have the spare time to devote to BIONICLE, so he has bowed out. We have already named a replacement, with an eye toward maintaining a similar style to Leigh's, and I will share his name as soon as DC gives me clearance to do so.

 

6) First draft of the 2010 screen treatment is out in Billund with the story team for approval. I have a conference call on Monday with the movie folk to discuss it. Almost certainly a second draft will be needed, but we'll see how harsh the rest of the team is about it :)

And there's only going to be one book for 09? 0_0

No, there's two of them, but the second will most likely turn into the a novelization of the new movie. And thats awesome that comics will be telling new story. Haven't had that since 2006 I think....

Working hard as always, Greg. :) I guess the lack of mention of story serials means that hasn't been decided yet. In any case it's nice to hear the comics are getting their own story bits. Can't wait for the premiere! ^_^

Aw man... I don't know where to get the comics in singapore, so I followed the novels... this is such a letdown

I think you get them through the Magazine subscription!

No offense Kodan, but I thought Elliot's style was a bit dis-proportionate in terms of set accuracy...and the coloring was too bright which completely turned me off...we all have different opinions but Leigh Gallagher is simply one of the greatest Bionicle drawers. Ever. It was completely accurate. It's a bummer to see him go at a time like this. Hope that new artist keeps his legacy on and on.

 

About the coloring, Ulises Arreola(the current colorist) rules!

Just to be sure I've read this right, there is no Comic with the May-June 2009 BrickMaster due to the scheduled release of "Raid on Vulcanus" occurring during the same time frame, correct?
