Unless it’s expanding the story, It’s not worth the money. Twilight is fine as a novel. It doesn’t need the story retold again in a manwa form.

I’ve had a hope that they’d make the book into a manga for a while, never thought it would happen though and I’m extremely happy that they’re turning it into a manga. I’ve been a huge manga fan for several years so this will be a great addition to my collection

“THOUGH Korean artist Young Kim is creating the art, Meyer herself is deeply immersed in the project”? That sounds like they’re blowing Kim off!

Bella doesn’t look like Bella. She looks almost…blonde…in the pic (though there’s no way of being certain). Edward looks okay.

But where did the t-shirts and sweaters go?!?

I’ll sue if it’s not better than the books.
Though almost ANYTHING would be better.

Plus, manga, manhwa, it doesn’t matter. Just because pizza’s made by an American doesn’t mean it’s not pizza. Same concept. My friend writes mangas and she’s Italian. Besides, it’s not even manga. It’s a graphic novel. =) yayz!!!

Well, being a huge manga fan myself, I have to point out to you that it would not be a Twilight manga, it would be a Twilight MANHWA. A manga is a Japanese comic, and a manhwa is a Korean comic. Just needed to clear that misconception up.

Before being a Twilighter, I admit to being an otaku first. So let me just say that there is a slight difference between a manga and a manhwa. Manga are from Japan and are of course read from left to right. Manhwa are Korean comics that are read from left to right, but can also be read the English way. (Most of the manga I’ve seen are usually in the Japanese form and the manhwa are in the English way *shrug*). Even though manhwa has usually been advertised as manga, I wish people would know the different at least. It’s like a cartoon and anime. There is a difference.

Anyway, I don’t know whether to be excited or upset over the news. I think the art looks clean, unlike other manga and manhwa I don’t even bother picking up because the art annoys me. And since the creator is consulting with Stephenie Meyer about it then I don’t see a problem. I just hope the rest of it lives up to the preview. I also like the fact that it doesn’t look like the actors. That’s a plus, not that I have anything against them. ^_~ I wish the artist of it the best of luck. ^^

I have a question though. Will it be read from right to left or left to right?
