Kin already specifies a whole group. And I won't comment on how they look the same as Mabu who all look like teddy bears. Not too hyped about it but Painyatta fans sure will.

Looks like the cover for Rift into Overdrive has officially been revealed. Note how Terrafin and Jet Vac are there; this could be proof that Spyro will be back in Superchargers.

I Was Expeciting an Super Awesome Cover...Oh well this looks cool anyway.

I think it's probably not not give anything away. But hey, Ossio doing the cover as he said, look pretty cool for so little. Kaos just casually grabbing Spyro by the tail and everything going literally flying on the background.

...Hey, if you look at the top left, that looks like someone's wing? Can't be Blades' because the tip is silver, Drobot's is too dark... Like the Malefor hardcover the secret is at the back!

Well i'm not saying it's bad, it's just it's not like i expected. Ossio does the best covers for the comics anyway.

Yeah, but I mean we're only seeing half of it. Like the hardcovers, the graphic novel seems to have the picture going into the back. So we'll probably have to wait for it to come out or for Ossio to post the full thing.

I hope so. I'm still waiting for Issue 10 since i already saw the preview.

I know that 10 and 11 are about Dark/Light, but is 12 also? (since arcs always come in 3 parts)
or is 12 the first part of Rift into Overdrive?

and RotDK Hardcover still says 6/23 on barns-N-noble's site.
why is there a talk of a delay?

No Issue 12 is the Season Finale with Trap Team. Rift to the Overdrive is the Prequel of SuperChargers.

I have no idea with the Return of the Dragon King Hardcover book being delayed.

Rift into Overdrive is a graphic novel and not exactly part of the 25-page comics(though part of the story), I'm not sure if it'll actually be released as 13.

There was no specified reason to delay the other RotDK either, but the hardcover was June 10 before.

Page previews of Issue 10 are available before its release this Wednesday.

Good lord,even the official comics use the old artwork for the Academy - c'mon guys, Ossio drew it for two issues straight, that sideways tower doesn't exist in the game.

Well, they are rebuilding it. So a redesign is possible.

Besides the concept art is much better than the already good official design.

I like Pain-Yatta's characterization from the preview pages.

Actually, the guy in question that's less smart really is acknowledged as such - if you see his backstory there's the whole reason he was accepted in the group,nothing to do with brains.

Warning: Spoilers regarding Painyatta.

Don't spoil the comic for people who are skipping previews, it's not a really nice thing to do. ._.

Issue 10 is now out.

So much for Light in the Dark :U

Not sure if I'll get the comic yet, I really like that suprise character but I'm not sure if it's worth spending ~20 reais out of my WiiU savings for that new art I'm not too happy with. I've got my eyes on Book of Elements: Magic and Tech really,but I'm not too sure about that one either since it's so early in the series and might have some conflicting canon.

so the hardcover RotDK has been completly removed from barns and nobles site on the day it was supose to be released (6/23) was it canceled or something?

RotDK was pushed back to July.

Full body cover of Rift into Overdrive has been posted~

Ossio never fails to deliver, wow this is too awesome >w<
He also said it's 66 pages long,so we can expect some DELICIOUS PLOT.

Well it's better then i expected.

IDW posted an updated release list for their comics - The Return of the Dragon King bundle will be out this wednesday~! Rejoice!

I really want that comic bundle.

After so many delays, the Return of the Dragon King full story bundle is now out today~

Any info about the upcoming Skylanders Comics?

None so far.

New cover of the first SuperChargers issue comic~
I love this one more~

Looks like Roller Brawl has a boomerang!

Looks like they're separating the comics in game arcs, while the Trap Team comics have 12 issues, the SuperChargers arc is starting over with their Issue #1 with the Rift into Overdrive prequel being #0.

And they seem to be on the Secret Sewers looking at the door design and the rotating switch.

Aaaand no Rift into Overdrive previews.

Not until around September, or the week of its release.

Meant previews from SDCC, since the poster mentioned there'd be something.

Ohhh, no. I don't think anyone got around to ask about the prequel.


I just noticed something in Issue 10.

(ok, kids wouldn't get it, but doesn't change the still frame creepiness)

This should happend in upcoming Comics. Even one Skylander Dying now that would be dark.

But it'd definately cross into the 'not okay for kids' territory. Having them APPEAR to meet an unfortunate end and show up fine later is something else entirely, as kid shows and movies have done that for a long time already, but final death of someone's hero would be a no-no for the franchise,no doubt.

Really? it would be something...just to people just shut up about the series that is too "childish".

It's their problem if they think a series where someone has pretty much attempted genocide and another person SUCEEDED is childish. They'll just find something else to complain about them, and we'll lose some younger fans. Much better to keep this family friendly, even if pushing that limit could make things more intense and fun every now and then.

But still, something I''m loving about these comics is how they really break the illusion that Skylanders are invicinble. Blades almost gets beat up without anyone to help, Hex DOES get beat up to the point of getting a black eye,a whole 44 of them get one hit ko-ed just with three Skylanders' powers, and as silly as candy warriors are they almost got a robot killed for real. Skylands is more hardcore than it sounds, it's just that you play as someone with superpowers to compensate.

Bumping his for something that might be of interest - Light in the Dark Part 2 is listed to be released in July 29th. First second week of the month,then third, now fourth, next we'll end up skipping a month to accomodate Superchargers. By the way, since they're resetting the number to 1 on it, should we call it Season 2?

Oh, and the first Superchargers book showed up on Amazon,from conquertronina, "Supercharged Race". She already mentioned they don't really have deep lore and are for young kids, but it's the first one that's not a comic showing up - maybe it's a sign the Soundtrack is going to be listed soon and other books that might have some hints about the game as well.

SuperCharged Race has actually been up in the Amazon listing for a while.

The Annual 2016 is already out in some countries.

I just looked on amazon for the annual and saw it has a release date of august 6th.
then I saw there is a "international" version due out September.
what is the difference?
I have all the other annuals and don't think there were any different versions of them out there?
are there?

I should try getting a skylanders annual if I can, but I'm a bit wary that most of it I wouldn't really be interested in as I feel these books are targeted to children 90% of the time.

Aren't the Annuals the ones with some strange mini-minicomics? Iiirc the Swap Force one had Mesmerelda and a good 2-3 pages. Might depend on which game you're interested in.

^I have that one (the 2015 annual). It's mostly an activity book but, it has a short story by Cavan Scort, that Mesmeralda comic, and an interview with Kaos' Mother (nothing add to the color, but you get to her concept art).

Hektore from SSA 3DS is mentioned on the page with Kaos' Mother but, it was more of a joke on how he hasn't been mentioned since that game.

When then Issue 11 will come out?!
