i know this isn't really about the movies or t.v. shows but thee is nowhere else to really put this

whatever happened to the MKD comics that were supposed to be released after MKD was released we got some preview pages and then absolutely nothing was heard of them ever again was there a reason behind it's cancellation?

i am an avid comic collector and i think MK's story is so fantastic it needs an ongoing comic especially with "the end" around the corner with MK armegeddon

i only buy marvel comics and even if they released MK comics by DC or Image or something i'd buy it anyway

marvel owns darkhorse i think....and marvel is probably the powerhouse of the comic franchine....DC blows...the only good thing that came out of DC was batman and iron man could defenately take him out...but yea back on topic....they should come out with some new mk comics....just not malibu versions because i didnt like the way they animated it...they should make a mortal kombat graphic novel that told the story from beginning to end....mk1-mk:a...i would buy that

WAM was supposed to do it I still got the link to the site with that info

http://www.wamentertainment.com/
but they let the license expire, I too wish there was a comic book on MK as I would love to see it done too.

the malibu one was pretty bad, good art and a good first few issues but then it just went wacky

personally I would love to see Devils due do one so I would say go over to a comic book companies site like devils due and make your voice heard if enough people did that then I am sure the company would realistically look at the possibilities of doing it.

devilsdue.net/forums

I started a post over there in the off topic sectioin and the ask Devils due section too so if you cant find it then just search it

if all the fans got together and posted something like this then I think they would pursue it. Its going to have to be a small company too DC marvel or Dark horse wont do it and if they did once sales got small enough they would cancel it alot quicker than a smaller company

so go here and post saying you want a GOOD MK comic book

well I can see why there is no comics -------------- theres very little interest.

Too bad as it would be nice to see done

Dark Horse comics wouldnt do it so a small publisher would be the only one that would do it

If anyone can think of another small company other than the links I posted above then please offer. The only chance we have is if all the people that are interested band together to get this done by posting at one place/

Still think Devils due would be a great publisher though

yeah little interest when MKDA,MKD,and MKSM all went to greatest hits and a new movie in pre-production the biggest mk just around the corner and plenty of mk fans read comics

as long as they don't kidify it it would be a great series that would definitely sell well

well no one posted anything in the thread at Devils due, would anyone be interested in signing a petition I could start on line? and then maybe send it to Devils Due?

I think if we want this to happened we should let a publisher like DEVILS DUE know it!

so if you guys would be interested in signing one I would try and start it

if not you could all send a e-mail to devils due saying you would buy a MK comic if they would produce one

thier contact link is here

http://www.devilsdue.net/contact

and ya I wouldnt want it kidified either I want it to be as violent and as bloody as the games

I would like it to be kept as realistic / in the real world setting as possible

for example keep the monsters( GORO / Motaro ? dragon King) in the tournaments only and in the shadows, perhaps when we do see Sheeva we see her wearing a cape hiding her extra 2 arms so when we see her she looks like a big muscle lady.

When they are revealed though make the people shocked - Like what the Hell,!!! give them the reaction a real person would have meeting a monster/god in real life

Get to the back stories of the US SPECIAL FORCES and the Black Dragon the Red Dragon The lin Kuei

ect ect

Yeah, I was kinda disappointed this never eventuated.

This, to me, seems like a very opportune time to do MK comics too.
With MK Armageddon bringing a degree of finality, if I got the license, I'd want to work with the guys and try to hammer out a definitive, sequential account of the MK canon.

You'd have to think it would be particularly effective if new games could tie into the promotion of it. It'd be a great device for new fans to go back and sift through the various takes on MK to arrive at a definitive version of each character, relationship and event.

It'd be a lot of fun.
If I were to gain any noteriety through self-publishing, this would be the first license I'd go after.

The new MK comics were cancelled for some reason, but no official word was given as to why. I know because I recently checked my local comics shop for them and they weren't even in the comic database. they told me if they were printed and released they'd be in their system but they weren't.

I guess I'm late to the party, but yeah, I'd love to see an MK comic. Considering how DarkHorse handles a lot of licensed properties (Godzilla, Star Wars, AvP, etc.), I think they'd do a good job.

I'd bid on it, Ninja_Arts! Yeah, a preview comic w/no color also came with those Fatality Controllers for the X-Box & PS2 by Nyko. You might still be able to get them at Blockbuster for cheap (10 or 15 bucks).

sorry to respond to my own post but I found it here:

http://scorpionblaze.deviantart.com/gallery/

god his stuff is awesome! seeing his work ,especially colored, only pisses me off more though I just cant believe there is no comic out there on thsi great franchise.

The petition I started isnt gathering a whole lot of sigs though so I am a bit dissapointed on that.

Jaz007 works in the comic book industry I wonder if he would know why no one has pursued this comic?

I am thinking the license for this is about 30k

so what if the fans got together and all pitched in

I figured if we can gather 60 fans and each pay 500 dollars each that would get the money for the license. In return those 60 fans would get every title and cover released for free for the life of the initial license. or if it makes a lot of money then it will be paid back to these members first before any profit taking.

I will personally put down $2,000 so I got the first 4 slots covered

anyone interested in taking action with me and doing something !!!
