Twilight Comic Book In The Works

Filed under: Twilight

Something to add to your collection, Twilighters!

A panel from the new Twilight comic book was unveiled this morning, giving all the die-hard fans a taste of what's to come.

Little Brown, the publishers behind the Twilight Saga, will be publishing Twilight in a graphic-novel form, with author Stephenie Meyer right at the helm "reviewing every panel."

The sketch above comes from the famous Biology scene, where Bella and Edward talk for the first time. We understand the illustrator, Korean artist Young Kim, is approaching the character renderings with more regards to the book rather than the films. That's why the Bella seen above looks really nothing like Kristen Stewart. But the Edward does have a hint of R-Patz's tousled hair, which we approve of.

No word yet as to when this will become available or if the other books will be developed into comics as well. We guess they'll see how the first one goes and take it from there.

What do U think Twi-hards? Ready to get in line for another addition to your bounty of Twilight memorabilia?

    6. 6

      Fail.



    7. 7

      Bella looks redic. She would not be wearing some frilly shirt- this illustration is not in tune with her character AT ALL.



    8. 8

      wow edward looks hot :P bella still looks nothing like i imagined her, but who cares about her anyways..

      still, i think they are going overboad with it all… arent the tits on that cow sore already?



    9. 9

      Edward looks like Adam Lambert … i don't think so!!!



    10. 10

      OVER RATED
      Twilight is shit now……………..



    11. 11

      Oh god, please NO. Stop feeding the Twitards and they'll die already.



    12. 12

      Holy crap enough already!!! I loved reading the saga, but theres getting to be too much crap! Next their going to come out with a cartoon or something…God I hope not….



    13. 13

      This Bella ACTUALLY LOOKS GOOD… AND SO DOES EDWARD! Wow really impressive wish the actors were that good looking lol the comic book Bella has better face expression than Kristen Stewart =P



    14. 14

    15. 15

      Hmmm luv a graphic-novel, a-la Frank Miller, but don't think I would bother with this even being a fan. Rather read the novels as written, and use my own imagery for it all.



    17. 17

      Just glad they gave her straight hair like she is supposed too!



    18. 18

      If it stays true to the books, yea, I'd be all over that. And R-patz had EDWARD'S tousled, hair, not vice versa. ;-)



    19. 19

      I like these two renditions of the characters much better than Robert and Kristen. Thank god SOMEBODY wants Twilight to stay true to the book - where the characters were actually attractive. :)



    20. 20

      God Perez, you really need to start getting your facts straight. In the book Edward always had tousled hair before Robert even came along.

      Do your research.



    21. 21

      The pic pretty much sums up the series. The characters are so vapid and pointless.



    22. 22

      I love the twilight saga but all this bullshit is starting to make me unlike the saga



    23. 23

      I can't wait! I was hoping they would do this all along. Although I wish that Bella didn't look so anime. I picture Alexis Bledel when I think of Bella so I wish she had more of her look. But regardless I'll definitely get them as long as they don't cut anything out, it should be exactly like the book and not like the movie.



    24. 24

      They got Avril Lavigne to model for Bella's character!!!



    25. 25

      OMG u.u



    26. 26

      seriously?

      enough is enough

      i had with this goddamn twilight. its not good enoguh for these kind of things



    27. 27

      Hate Kristen, nothing in this world should look like an ungreatfull bitch.



    28. 28

      I'm not a Twi-fan, but I do think it isn't fair to exploit people's love of a novel/series like this. People keep robbing this cash cow and I feel bad for the fans who get taken for a ride by opportunists.

    29. sfan says – reply to this


      29

      this looks nothing like edward or bella from the book. this looks like avril lavigne, maybe if you read the book fatass you would realize this looks nothing like bella from the books. hateful ugly pig you are, perez.



    30. 30

      They couldn't get the bloody movie right, so the comic book is so going to suck. I'd rather Stephanie finished Midnight Sun for the fans and not concentrate on this shit



    31. 31

      I don't think Bella was supposed to be so beautiful… she's strange and a bit weird and odd looking, but not ugly… so a bit like KS I think



    32. 32

      Ther is no point looking falward to it because it will probly only come out in the U.S
      bring Twilight stuff to the UK pls =[



    33. 33

      oh come on, stop overdoin it, this is stealin money from idiots



    34. 34

      Can we fill in the speech bubble?: "You're just a hollow shell for the reader to project their personality through, you know. Whats 'Cha…rac…ter development'?"



    35. 35

      oh man… here it comes again…



    36. 36

      It's gonna look way to anime. And it won't come out in the UK anyway. Which really pisses me off about Twilight. I am a HUGE fan but all the competitions to win really cool stuff is only in the US and so is most of the merchandise. It's really annoying.



    37. 37

      the movie was HORRIBLE– bad acting, ugly characters. i would totally buy this graphic novel



    38. 38

      enough with this fucking Twilight bullshit already.



    39. 39

      ew.



    40. 40

      I like comic books and twilight so I'll have to see. Oh and I really don't like her top! She wouldn't wear that.



    41. 41

      You mean Twi-TARDS? :P



    42. 42

      OUFFF!we sould thank the designer for bella not look like kristen stewart!!!!!!!!!!



    43. 43

      I cant imagine it,
      everytime i think of edward i see Rob Pattinson, and whenever i think Bella and jus see Kristens face..
      .
      .
      .
      .
      .
      .



    44. 44

      thats way too much…are they trying to make money out of shit now???



    45. 45

      It's not even that great. If I start talking about the flaws of the Twilight saga AND the movie, it will take me days to finish!! I will not buy that shit, I didn't even buy the movie!! And I regret that I spent money on crap a.k.a the twilight books….
      But if I had Stephenie Meyer's perspective on this one, I'd do the same.. I mean I just wrote a bunch of stupid novels and people have gone mad.. I would look for my own best interest and if it includes more money to my piggy bank, then why not?



    46. 46

      YES! So glad Bella looks nothing like K-Stew!!! I think those renditions are virtually perfect. I'll probably get the comics… I really wish she would just come out with another book though… Midnight Sun (I think) was a bad idea… I mean… not to be the FIFTH installment! I want to know what happens in Jacob and Renesme's future!! Bella and Edward can't escape trouble for too long anyway.



    47. 47

      this is stupid . no . twilight can NOT be a manga . i mean , ewww . who even read some mangas ?



    48. 48

      Bella looks a little like avril lavigne….



    49. 49

      this is getting really stupid. i love twilight, but this is too much.



    50. 50

      *eye roll* This is getting out of hand. Stephenie Meyer really needs to keep a lid on her merchandise…..like J.K. Rowling does. You don't see a Harry Potter comic book DO you?



    51. 51

      Very manga..



    52. 52

      OMG! This CRAP needs to DIE already! *barf*



    53. 53

      i agree bella is a little too dressed up for bella. but i do love that she doesn't look like kristen thank heavens! the edward looks good maybe a little off but i'm just comparing him to rob and thats just not fair the cartoons. that aside i'm kind of excited to see what it looks like.



    54. 54

      i love the twilight saga but this is taking it too far leave it to a book, thats what it was meant to be



    55. 55

      too much. i love twilight more than almost any thing but…. toooo much. OH GOD! ITS LIKE THE BEEGEES! TOOO MUCH BEEGEES.lol



    56. 56

      umm wow, I really like Twilight and all, but this is beyond ridiculas. Honestly a comic book? Like we need to be milking the obsessive fans behavior.



    57. 57

      uhhh, no i wouldn't want to read some comic books. the books and the movie are good enough for me!



    58. 58

      Anything has to be better the the stupid, pathetic movie! The movie is so bad I am embarrassed to admit I am a fan of the books. I actually cringe when I see movie trailers! ugh!



    59. 59

      more crap?! theres enough twilight things out there.. now a comic book too?!



    60. 60

      I love the Twilight series but I don't really read comic books!



    61. 61

      No that is so stupid. . . A. they dont even look like rob and kristen! so anime characters why dont u look at a picture and actually draw something that looks like the characters… jesus fucking christ.



    62. 62

      The manga is better actress thank K-Stew!!



    63. 63
