Date was listed as wednesday in PreviewsWorld, but if we got no page previews until now,chances are we're skipping a week again for no good reason whatsoever.

I'd say nice double-spread page... But that's the most obvious example copy and paste in this series. Sure, the candy warriors look similar, but all coincidentally have the same shading in a battlefield? I don't think so.

I noticed that David Rodriguez lets us know on his Twitter when the Skylanders comic preview pages are posted on sites that posts them.

Huh, better than relying on the IDW facebook or Comic Book Resources, then, because it's pretty late and they don't have it at all.

I saw the summary on the wiki; so the lore we can get for Light and Dark is that mixing it creates life,or at least golem animating powers?
That's... Kinda overpowered?

Yeah, Pain-Yatta siphoned the energies of Light and Dark from the Light and Dark Skylanders to power himself and his candy army.

Oh man, that would've been a nice Book of Elements-y theme actually. It's a legit question since they obviously can't be all on duty all the time - we saw glimpses of them screwing around in the Citadel in Onk Beakman's books but they were events in itself(and this book being so short probably will as well).

"*speaks to level theme*Do you save the princess? Or catch the bad guy?" And it's probably the Doom Challenge training "holodeck", considering the continuity, I hope. Though this is kind of a weird theme for the final issue.

Cavan Scott/Onk Beakman is back on the game! A few days late but he mentioned in a blog post that he's back writing comics and small stories for the series,starting out with the Skylanders Magazine's latest issue minicomic.
Here's hoping that means more books, they're amazing. Can't say the same about the Skylanders Magazine,being UK only I couldn't hope to get a few issues for some small lore. Only two issues are even avaliable on Ebay and a bit too expensive for a small magazine.

The cover looks good but I'm not a fan of that art style (too simple and "bland") at least not for this comic series.
Happy it's just a variant.

And here's something that I found while looking for the Issue 11 Variant Cover(because it's a mirror of the 10 one with Blackout and Knight Mare and I just had the feeling I actually didn't see it before) - Issue 12 variant cover! It was on GoCollect.
(for some reason this only shows up on Preview for me, if it doesn't just drag the link to a new tab) Most of the variant covers don't actually have anything to do with the comic,but this one is pretty funny. Enigma is the life of the party.

Drag it on another tab, it's also showing up for me only every two refreshes or so. No idea what's wrong, the URL doesn't have any weird looking text.

Previews are up for the final TT comic!
It's a little messy because you have to open one tab per page,but here it is. We'll probably get more organization when Comic Book Resources gets a hold of it. It's a simulation as I guessed. So they CAN just recreate the boss battles and arenas; well at least it's confirmation that the places in Doom Challenge don't exist. Also pre-SC will be the first graduation day in the academy, meaning it really was officially open for one year and the Minis just really snuck out of studies for TT. *dramatic gesture to the skies*My fanfic is ruined...!---nevermind you didn't hear that from me.Eh, headcanons don't stay forever, I took the risk when I put myself in the tighest of spots for a fanfic. Also dear lord who's that blond frog-like woman in the last frame.I don't have money for this or Rift into Overdrive,but the curiosity is getting big. Oh yeah and MABU DRAWN AND COLORED RIGHT YES.

Amazon has The Light in the Dark comic story bundle up for preorder. It's set to be released next year in January. Talk about late to the party.
Summary - New forces have come to Skylands in the Light and Dark elements and the evil candy king, Pain-Yatta, may have found a way to harness those forces for his own, evil deeds. Can Knight Light, Gearshift and their friends ban together in time to stop the avalanche of candy from crushing all of Skylands? Also included in this volume is "Graduation Day" featuring all your favorite Skylanders Minis!

Issue 12 is out.
The band members for the graduation (ironically called The Evil Imposters) turned out to be some of the Doom Raiders (Golden Queen, Dr Krankcase, Wolfgang, and the Gulper) in disguise and they successful turned all the present Skylanders and adults into gold statues. They plan on ambushing the other Skylanders by turning them to statues as well. The Minis were the only ones that weren't caught, and thanks to Pet-Vac's leadership and confidence, the Minis were able to defeat the Doom Raiders and graduate as full-fledged Skylanders.

Does anyone have a list of the Onk Beakman novels? I have Stump Smash Crosses The Bone Dragon, Cynder Confronts The Weather Wizard, Terrafin Battles The Boom Brothers, Lightning Rod Faces The Cyclops Queen, Gill Grunt and The Curse of The Fish Master, Spyro Versus The Mega Monsters and The Machine of Doom. I know there's also one with Trigger Happy, but I was wondering if there are any others. Also, is he still writing more?

No more novels from him so far. Who knows when he'll write Skylander novels again. You can ask him on his website though if he is working on some.
Btw, Onk Beakman is Cavan Scott's Skylander alias.

Oh, didn't know that. I'm still not really interested in the activity stuff or annuals though (I had an annual, and it was fine, but not worth searching for). I hope he is making more, but since they haven't been mentioned in a while, it seems like the comics replaced them. :/

He's been doing short comics for them and from his last post about it he just got back to doing stuff for the series. Could mean that he'll do more, maybe even guest comics for the IDW ones.
Well, not a connection to SC as I hoped,but crossdressing Krankcase isn't something you see every day.

I didn't noticed something until now.
Spyro was standing by Master Eon during the graduation ceremony and I didn't see it at first, I thought he was a big Spry. Guess the artist didn't detail Spyro enough to separate him from Spry X3 And you can see cameo Skylanders attending the graduation, I even saw Pop Thorn.

Also, reading the summary on the wiki, got myself wondering. No need to answer if you guys feel like I might be getting too much wihout buying the comic.
Why does Golden Queen obsess over the egg on her staff anyway? Considering it's always stationary right above it,I always thought it was just part of the entire thing and didn't simply separate from the rest.
