>At this year's Comic-Con in San Diego, Random House's Del Rey Manga line announced that it will publish both a manga prequel and a manga adaptation of the live-action feature film The Last Airbender. Dave Roman is writing both the prequel and the adaptation. Joon Choi is illustrating the adaptation in full manga style, while Nina Matsumoto will illustrate the prequel -- which is due out around three months before the movie’s debut in July 2010.More here.

Sounds cool. I just wish it was an adaptation of the cartoon.

So...I found this at DA... ...with this from the artist: Another UNOFFICIAL Last Airbender piece -- just me doodling and playing with Painter while taking a break from work!
This is more or less how Zuko will appear in the prequel manga for The Last Airbender live action film (so it's Zuko's movie design, not TV design). I like how his hair looks in the film; kinda wild and fiery. Dare I say he looks kinda Dragonball-esque here?Following links on her DA account...I found her name to be...Nina Matsumoto...so I guess it's for real.

Interesting. The left hand is oddly big though. I think I may pick up these mangas.

I agree with tainted. It really kind of sucks that we are not getting even a smiggen of continued canon from the series in any form....... (Personally, I would like a graphic novel) there are really alot of questions that could be answered. As for the new Zuko look, I've seen Dav Patel's look for him, and it does have some differences to the look of the manga.

Well now, I don't know how else to say this, but if that is Iroh and those are dreads, my interest has just spiked up. Seriously, why does it have to be dreadlock!Iroh that intrigues me? Why do dreadlocks intrigue me period? If he has those in the movie... I'd be very conflicted about seeing it then. Admitting this was kinda considering the casting drama... Yeah. So uh... I like it... Paramount, don't do this to me!

Yeah...I don't mind the look of the art. I'm seriously considering buying the manga even if I don't see the movie.
