‘Enders Game’ Comic Book!

It looks like Orson Scott Card’s ‘Enders Game’ is going to Comic Book form! I myself am still waiting for the movie, but a comic book will have to do for now. I guess they are still trying to figure out how to make the movie. Or maybe they are putting out a comic book because comic book are finding huge success at the movie theater box office. Is it all part of a plan to refresh the ‘Ender Game’ story before it hits theaters several years from now? Who knows But here is some art from the comic book. The ‘Enders Game’ comic book will be unveiled at Comic-Con next week! Thanks to EW for getting the scoop! The Comic book is written by Christopher Yost and art by Pasqual Ferry.

    If thats the art, it looks really awful, Real crap.

    I hope Orson Scott Card approves of the art and the story stays true. I would really like to see this adapted for screen! It would be really hard, but great if done right!

    I agree that the art looks terrible. You can be a great writer and still not have a clue when it comes to art and design. I would love to see a movie for Enders game! I have been waiting for years! The technology is there now to make it happen. its only a matter of time.

    I would also love to see an Ender’s Game/Ender’s Shadow movie, but I have no confidence in the movie industry when it comes to science fiction movies based on books (i.e. Starship Troopers). The comic book is a good idea to see how well they can come up with a visual representation of Orson’s ideas. I think the comic will definitely give us an idea of how successful a movie adaptation would be. For those of us who are died-hard fans, I’m sure we all feel both excitement and mounting dread. For me, I just hope they don’t forget how important Bean is.

    i just read it. it sucks. buggers are formics now; looking like big robots. wtf. ive been a fan of ender’s game for 20 years; i can’t believe this adaptation. i’m glad the movie never came out. there is no inner dialogue, the art is mediocre, horrible concept, industrial, sci-fi, costumes and character design. last thing - ender’s got a bowler hair-cut. ‘nuf said.
