As someone who knows diddly about comics, I’m just going to throw it out there that I have no idea what “Photo Subscription Variant” means. But these are some awesome covers. I kind of like the photo covers, but I actually like the drawings best.
So does this mean they really are comics and not graphic novels? Yeah, I still don’t know the difference.
Honest to God, I don’t really know the difference between comics and graphic novels, since neither are something I usually read. However, this is Grimm, and God knows I’ve about become obsessed with this show. Whatever it is, it has 112 pages.
See? Here are some screenshots of the interior. Beware, these screenshots could contain spoilers, so keep that in mind!
Comic or graphic novel? Is there really a difference? I’m all for someone enlightening me on this issue.
Never-before-told stories, set in the world of the acclaimed NBC series, Grimm, by the show creators themselves! Homicide Detective Nick Burkhardt, joined by his mother Kelly, Hank, and Monroe, uncover family secrets long buried during their adventure in Europe. Hunted by Verrat soldiers, their quest to destroy the Coins of Zakynthos reveals dark secrets and promises death for a member of the cast!
From the sample pages on Amazon, it sounds like there’s going to be a lot of Nick’s kicking-ass mom in this book, and of course, a revisit of the Coins of Zakynthos myth from season 1 and season 2.
Available on November 19.
The new TNT series Falling Skies is an exciting science fiction drama set on Earth after an attack from an alien species that leaves the human population struggling to fight back.
Continue the story with the Falling Skies graphic novel which is a prequel to the television series, telling the tale of Tom Mason and his sons.
In the heart of Boston, following the devastating events of an alien invasion, history professor Tom Mason and his sons meet up with the 2nd Mass, a militia group determined to wipe out the aliens. But with the militia’s supplies running low, Tom must locate an old friend to equip him and his team in order to ensure the survival of the human race!
Update: The Falling Skies graphic novel is out of stock at TFAW, so you’ll probably have to pick it up at Amazon for the moment if you want to read it. The price is now the same at both places anyway.
You can buy Falling Skies from Amazon but it costs less at Things from Another World. Love the way you can preview the books at TFAW. It makes it easy to know just what kind of quality and story you’re getting.
Here are plenty of product specific details about the Falling Skies comic book from Dark Horse. There’s also a Falling Skies webcomic you will want to read if you’re interested in this book.
