Blood & Iron is going to be a graphic novel in France, brought out by Soleil Productions. Or more precisely, three graphic novels--volume 1 is forthcoming in January '09 (tentatively), and a second and third volume should follow on a yearly schedule.
It will be a French translation, obviously. No word yet if or when there may be an English version, but as Soleil does work with Marvel, there is hope. (It may wind up being a little like that classic Late Night With David Letterman bit where he had a team of translators take the Beatles' "Yesterday" from English through six other languages and back again, but then again, that might be an improvement! You never know!)
This pleases me no end. As some of you know, B&I started life as a graphic novel script, so in a way it's come full circle. And I get to fulfull my twenty-year ambition of seeing the Kelpie on a splash page.*
So here's to a glorious future for Sang et Fer, yah?
*::puts a quarter in the pun jar without even being ordered::
Oh, I hope there's an English version soon. I'd just lovelovelove to see a graphic Kelpie *g*
That's awesome.
I really hope the whole series sells to the U.K. too, it astounds me that it hasn't already. What are they thinking??!!
I will go sit in a corner now and imagine pictures of the hot werewolf and Matthew without a mullet. Right after a small burst of squeeeeing for you.
I mean... Sang et Fer pour la victoire!
And I get to fulfull my twenty-year ambition of seeing the Kelpie on a splash page.
If this were any of the incarnations of Callahans, I'd be throwing peanuts in your direction. *grin*
I am a translator. If the graphic novel ever gets bought by an English-language company, please let me know how to apply for the job of translating it.
