The Great Tree

Vormaen

I am back, after many ages away. Most remember my art submission of Yeesha when Ubi had the art contest.

www.geocities.com/vormaen1

the pic is on my Uru page.

I was pmed about doing a comic and it got my wheels turning. If I get enough support and coaxing, I may put the time and effort into creating the comic (with Cyan's permission of course)

So let the comments fly, if I get enough responses to do it, I will, no questions asked. Yes, explorers will have a chance to appear in the books, and I would love ideas to come from the fans themselves.

yeah, i was thinking that Vormaen could turn some of the chatlogs here (like Phil's so-called "kidnapping", that's kinda dramatic-like) into comics...

(i was the one who PMed him, by the way... Very Happy

)

idea #1

Godzilla vs. Tokyo running parallel to The Explorer vs. The Quabs.

idea #2

something centered around (spoiler: the stupid barrel towards the end of Er'cana.)

things from Live, like Phil's "kidnapping" and accident, would be awesome...

but the modern discovery of D'ni would be cool too...

*goes to think up more ideas*

Is this not that popular of an idea? Not really hearing from a lot of people.

All I know is that when I went to look at the picture yesterday, Geocities told me that you'd exceeded your bandwidth for that time and I'd have to come back later. If you're going to do this, you need a website with more bandwidth! It's clearly a bit more popular of an idea than you've realized.

Now that I can see the artwork, I really like it. It honestly reminds me of the art from Dark Horse Comics that appeared in the MYST comics.

Until I've managed to stumble my way through Path of the Shell, though, I'm going to be mute on suggestions. I'm still scratching my head over the purpose of the arabic numbers pasted on walls here and there, and wondering who must've recently preceeded me and put them there. It's strange seeing Arabic numbers in Uru when I'm expecting D'ni numbers. Smile

Didn't someone start a MYST comic book series a few years back? I know I've seen some for sale on E-Bay...

Anyway, Vormaen, it would be fantastic if you would start a new comic book series starting with URU, and then MYST: Revelation. I would especially like to see more interaction with Shroomie, the Bahro, the one remaining D'ni resident in Noloben, and Yeesha...

Are you hooked up with a comic company yet?

No, unfortunately not. I once tried, long ago, and almost got to work for Top Cow, but thanks to my military signup, no go.

So I guess I will do this then......if you see this post, tell me what you want to see in it. Also, someone please tell me who and how to contact Cyan to get permission for this......

Hi Vormaen you need to contact Chris at Cyan's legal department, at Cyan World's website there's a form you can fill in. Here's the link with all the info:

Ok, I have sent in my request, let's hope I get permission. If I do, I will do a test page to see what you guys think. One, does anyone have a place they can store this, I don't have a website that can host this thing, and two, if anyone is good at coloring, please contact me.
