Excellent cover. I'm looking forward to this graphic novel.

I don't know what it will cost. It will be hard cover, and there will not be a limited edition. I'm hoping that it will be about the same price, or maybe just a little more than the regular trade collections. It will not have the fancy embossing, book jacket, or other extras that the limited HCs have.

Do you mean, "Will there be another ORIGINAL graphic novel."? I consider Dragon Bellow and Grasscutter to be novels. I don't know if there will be another original novel. We'll have to see how well this one sells.

Egmont may choose to release it as a trade paperback. It would depend upon if they think they can sell enough copies to make it worth publishing.

That would be great, i think they could possibly take some new fans / i know many people buing only color comics with shining covers ^^ - that would be chance for em to learn about uy, but i think it depends on what situation is in egmont , and hows uy selling... the price is second thing...well...maybe ill buy the original english version.
