Cool! I'm definitely going to check this out. Good timing too- given IGN's excellent Zelda trailer released a few days ago.

Link
He come to town
Come to save
The Princess Zelda
Ganon took her away
Now the children don't play
But they will when Link saves the day
(Hallelujah!)
Now, Link
Fill up your hearts
So you can shoot
Your sword with power
And when you're feeling all down
The fairy will come around
So you'll be brave and not a sissy coward

Oh, Link
Has saved the day
(Yay)
Put Ganon
In his grave
So now Zelda is free
And now our hero shall be
Link!
I think your name shall go down into history!

Oh cool! Normally I don't like series that are bassed off of other works, whether they be video games or TV series or whatever, but this one I actually might go ahead and read! Very Happy

Ah, the Ishinomori comic. A great time to subscribe to Nintendo Power magazine.


Man, I'm with you guys there. When I saw this headline, that's the first thing that came to mind.

Twilight Princess sold extremely well and Phantom Hourglass is still selling very strongly so I'm sure this manga should sell a lot. I hope so anyways

Shu-weet! I've already read most of the manga via scanlation a couple years ago...still, about time they came over here!

Say, shouldn't Team Himekawa come out with a Twilight Princess Manga soon? Eventually? Thought I remembered hearing something about it...

I'm just wondering what the hold up is with the anime. That Captain N/Captain Lou Zelda cartoon is only good for nostalgia.

Wait, so is it only the Ocarina of Time books?

Oh, if these sell well, I hope they bring out the other Zelda books by Akira Himekawa too. There's a Majora's Mask one, two Oracle ones, And I think there's Wind Waker and Minish Cap books too.

Zelda didn't contain any nipples or nudity did it?

Nothing Viz would ruin?


Well...sorta

Definitely no nipples though. Wink

Haru: The only Zelda games I hated were Oracle of Seasons and Ages, so if there are manga for those, hopefully they do more for the story than the games.

I'm willing to bet that it's the two Ocarina of Time books. I hope that they sell well enough for all of the other Zelda manga to be brought over.
Now I can't wait! Only 6 more months for the Zelda manga! Wink

The Oracle games were actually my favorites.

I still have all of the old Nintendo Power comics. Zelda, Mario, Star Fox, the couple of Wario comics, that Super Metroid one I hated... I guess I should drag them out some day and scan them, or something, but somebody else has probably already done that.

Interesting to see that somebody has finally decided to bring another Zelda comic state-side, anyway.

Completely agree with you, "A Link to the Past" was one of the great reason to have a Nintendo Power subscription. That said I am looking forward to actually getting my hands on the other stories I haven't had a chance to read yet.
