Does anyone know that if there are any plans to releace ZENITH as graphic novels?
Not in 2006, it seems...

Hey,
To anyone who's reading this, I'm new here and maybe this sounds like a unnecessary question. But, I was wondering what precisely is the difference between a reprint and a graphic novel?
Is a reprint something that is republished in the monthly progs. or collected together and sold in a similar fashion to a graphic novel?
If anyone could give me an answer that would be greatly appreciated, I have been trying to figure it out for 4 hours now. So, in advance, FLORIX GRABUNDAE.

Not until Grant M & 2000AD kiss and make up.
Are you suggesting that Matt Smith dons a Tharg mask and ...
Nevermind.
Hell, I've read vertigo mini-series based on less...
Fe Fi Fo Fum
What about the some new Zenith..... ;-)
Why...whats his beef?
I've got the Titan editions of the first three Phases still for sale...
How much?
'swert', i think it's something like morrison claims he never signed a contract handing the characters over to fleetway, who then sold 2000ad on to rebellion. It beats me why he wont let them reprint zenith, it's a great strip, especially phases 2 and 3, and serves as a great introduction to his other, more challenging work. I for one got into morrison through zenith. As ive said before on this board, each book of zenith, reprinted in the lovely 'matte' rebellion trade format would be fantastic.
Why don't they just circumvent this whole issue and do some new ones. You could have Mark Millar write it and Siku draw it.
That would be fabby-doo.
The Satanist by name, sick depraved evil twisted bastard by nature....
You leave Siku alone, you big rotter.
We'll leave Siku alone if he leave Zenith alone - deal?
Remembering zzzenith.com, I'm tempted to observe that Mark Millar might actually make a better job of it.
Then I remember Judge Dredd: Frankenstein Division.
{Shudder}
I thought zzzenith.com was a pretty funny strip, and relevant, given the changes in the world since the original series was printed. One thing strikes me, though: surely, that was written for Rebellion?
Surely to God the time of the whole DC deal would have been the ideal time to sort this out once and for all. Reprintng Zenith, given both Morrison's pulling power (sales, not nightclubs) and the story's superhero basis, would have made it an absolute goldmine. Not to mention a great way of drumming up Yank interest in the whole line.
Jeez. Maybe I should just take over as head of marketing for all comics companies...
Oh, and isn't there some sort of problem over the copyright on Robot Archie and all that lot from Phase 3?
I'd take offers starting at ?50 for the set James.

Cripes!
Not likely, sorry!
Don't worry about it. Still, if anyone wants a bargain...
Siku rules, unlike Zenith's last outing
