ElfQuest<\/em>‘s 30th Anniversary Gift: Everything<\/p>\n

Thirty years after its first appearance in early 1978, ElfQuest<\/em><\/a> is poised to make its biggest online splash ever. Beginning March 14, and every Friday throughout 2008, Warp Graphics presents every ElfQuest<\/em> comic book story from the Original Quest all the way up to 2006’s The Discovery<\/em>.<\/p>\n

With over 6000 pages of material to prepare and upload, the project will easily take the remainder of this 30th anniversary year. The initial offering will start off with an explosion of firsts: There will be the entire first graphic novel, to introduce new readers to the characters and world of ElfQuest<\/em>, plus the first issues of all the spinoff titles produced during the 1990s. Each week will see several more issues added to the collection. Eventually, every published page will make its way to the online archive. A timeline and a catalog of all ElfQuest<\/em> appearances are part of the package, so all readers will be able to experience the complete saga from start to present-day.<\/p>\n

The official ElfQuest<\/em> site is elfquest.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

February 28, 2008:<\/p>\n

It had to happen. Even with thirty years of more-or-less continuous publication, there’s a goodly chunk of the complete ElfQuest<\/em> saga that has gone out of print. Many of the collected volumes are still available but raising a new audience one book at a time is slow. So after a lot of thought we have decided, over the course of ElfQuest<\/em>‘s 30th anniversary year, to make every single ElfQuest<\/em> comic available to you, to read, right here.<\/p>\n

It’s going to take page-code revamping and a heck of a lot of scanning, but by year’s end you’ll be able to follow every tale, every adventure of every character who’s ever seen print. Keep watching here, or better yet, join the ElfQuest<\/em> forum and Yahoo’s ElfQuest<\/em> news group for other news and announcements, and to find out when new installments go up. (Which, given there’s over 200 issues, means several new chapters every week. High Ones help us!)<\/p>\n

Launch of the new ElfQuest<\/em> Online Comics site is set for Friday, March 14, 2008 — with new material coming every Friday after that for the rest of this 30th anniversary year. The countdown has begun!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
