New Fraggle Rock Comic 2014

[lazesummestone]

Personally, I'm just glad these comic books are comic book shaped this time. I could never track down the kid's book shaped comic protector sleeves.

100 times yes! and it should make a good collected book if that happens (which I'm sure will happen). with the normal book proportions.

OH OH! Also if you happen to be going to San Diego ComicCon later this month. There's a cool Panel that will outline all the new projects that Archaia will be doing with JimHenson company! Here's the Blurb if anyone's interesting in going!
It seems like people on this little forum might enjoy it!

The Jim Henson Company: Upcoming Comics with Archaia

Studios-has published beautiful hardcover reprints of the novelizations of favorite Henson properties Labyrinth, The Dark Crystal, and The Storyteller.

UPDATE!
As a followup, here's a writeup (although severely summarized) of the Jim Henson SDCC panel I mentioned above!

Heya! There's a Interview of me and Kate over on Comic Book Resources! Also there's a pretty exciting other interview that may appear later this week on a certain website Muppet enthusiasts frequent.

Neato! I can't wait to read this!

(Oh...it was Red who asked Boober what death was like. That was after they'd switched roles, with Red being frightened and out of her element and Boober being calm.)

Love the suggestion for the comic about Uncle Matt's missing baloobius, hahaha.

Matt had a full baloobius when he was young. Maybe Fraggle pattern baldness happens at both ends? Has anyone seen the World's Oldest Fraggle's baloobius?

Fun trivia: Fraggle baloobiuses are the same color as their hair. The exception is Convincing John, who has a gray baloobius and black hair. I suspect he dyes his hair.

Ohyeah! Darn it I totally knew that!

Whoa!!! Good Fraggle Terminology! I was actually thinking about using that word "Baloobius" but then figured 99.9% of the people reading would have no idea what I was talking about.

That's an interesting fact- and that shows that the puppet creators really thought about every detail- I think you're right about convincing John actually. He seems like the type!
