Twilight Goes Manga

The Entertainment Weekly got the exclusive on the new Twilight Saga Manga (we’ve been asked not to embed their exclusive photo so we are compiling.)

EW.com has exclusive sketches online and this week’s issue of Entertainment Weekly (which is the annual Comic-Con preview issue) has the finished illustrations of Edward, Bella, and Jacob.  The sketches don’t look simply like an artist’s rendering of Kristen Stewart and Rob Pattinson, but are true to the novel’s descriptions. Yen Press,  a division of Hachette Book Group (the parent company of Little Brown that publishes The Twilight Saga), is publishing this venture.

“For those of you who can’t get enough Edward and Bella, EW can announce — exclusively — that Yen Press will be publishing Twilight in graphic-novel form. Though Korean artist Young Kim is creating the art, Meyer herself is deeply immersed in the project, reviewing every panel.”

The Lexicon asked a spokesperson for Stephenie Meyer when the novel would be release and we were told the following: A publication date for Twilight: The Graphic Novel will be forthcoming.” So hang on, as soon as we know, you’ll know!
