A lot of great series seem to be headed down this track lately. The Dabel Brothers have been working on Dresden Files comics, Dean Koontz comics, George R. R. Martin comics, Raymond E. Feist, and the list goes on…
And now they’re going to adapt the whole of Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time series. Very cool. As you may also know, the last book in the Wheel of Time series, A Memory of Light, is being written by Brandon Sanderson. With the enormity of thePublish Post series, it will be interesting to see if this comic adaption reaches a wider audience, since they won’t have to wade through 5-600 page books to get the whole story. Despite some of the slower, meandering portions of the tale, it still is one of my favorite fantasy stories, and I can’t wait to finally see the end of it after all this time.
So here’s a question. Which of all the fantasy or science fiction series that you’ve read would you really like to see a comic book adaption done for it? One of my picks would be Simon R. Green’s Man with the Golden Torc series. He just writes so very visually that it would be such an easy transition to bring some life and color to the text.
I see that smile.
