Best Books for Young Adults 2009 - Amulet Book One: The Stonekeeper makes the list!

Will Smith and Akiva Goldsman option Amulet movie - The film will be based on the story of the first two books. Screenwriters have been hired, but the film has yet to be greenlit. I hope it comes together!

Ain't It Cool News reviews Daisy Kutter - "It’s just great when I come across a book that is a perfect representation of sequential art. When I read a graphic novel/comic book that is the pinnacle of characterization, storytelling and art I just giggle with glee. It makes me so happy to come across a book that exemplifies the best in its class and make no mistake about it DAISY KUTTER: THE LAST TRAIN is one of the best comics I’ve ever read. Period." Click to read the full review.

Comic Belief - Another catchy article title. This is a scan of a recent article in the Pasadena Star News. Here's an accompanying cover image.

Scholastic Snares a Viper - The title of this article is pretty hilarious. It talks a little about my next graphic novel series. This article is from Publisher's Weekly.

Copper in the New York Times - Copper is featured in an article on webcomics.

Copper on G4TV - Copper is featured on Attack of the Show.

DK review at Diamond's Scoop - "We had managed to overlook Daisy Kutter when it first came out in mini-series form, but no such mistake this time."

DK review at The Fourth Rail - "Mix equal parts George Lucas, Miyazaki and Sergio Leone and you've got some idea what to expect from Daisy Kutter, the western/sci-fi adventure by Kazu Kibuishi." - Randy Lander

 

 



Amulet Desktop
November 01, 2007 - Thursday

Here's a desktop image made from one of the panels in Amulet. You can download it at either 1024, 1280, or 1600 resolution. I got word from my editor that they're already moving into a second printing of the paperback edition before the release date (likely due to heavy Book Fair pre-orders). This means we'll have a revised edition, with the proper logo and text colors available on the release date. The copies with the unapproved yellow logo and text will thankfully be the only ones in existence, but I guess that makes them collector's items. Heheh.

Also, over on the Flight Forums, I opened up a new section dedicated to video games. Feel free to post about your favorite games and let people know what you're currently playing. I draw a lot of inspiration from games (which I suppose is pretty obvious by now), so I'm guessing a lot of Flight Forumers do too.

Last night, a bunch of us at the studio went to Universal Studios for their Halloween event, which was cheesy, but fun. I think the most horrific part of the evening, though, was seeing all of the parts from E.T. The Ride (now long gone...WHY?!) being cannibalized for use in some cheesy, cheap-scare horror mazes. I was really sad when I recognized the red VW bug from the forest, which they used for an accident scene in the Friday the 13th maze. I guess it's fitting that it was surrounded by dead people. Rest in peace, E.T. The Ride. Anyway, check out Clio's blog for a sketch of her experience. Also, I like this tiger.
