The Spice Must Flow! Welcome to the Kirby's Kids Super Special DUNE 2020. Angus profiles DUNE: The Graphic Novel, the definitive graphic novel adaptation of Dune from the groundbreaking science-fiction classic by Frank Herbert. This is all in anticipation of the October 22nd release of Denis Villeneuve's DUNE.

DUNE: The Graphic Novel

https://www.comixology.com/DUNE-The-Graphic-Novel/digital-comic/859419

Dune, Frank Herbert’s epic science-fiction masterpiece set in the far future amidst a sprawling feudal interstellar society, tells the story of Paul Atreides as he and his family accept control of the desert planet Arrakis. A stunning blend of adventure and mysticism, environmentalism, and politics, Dune is a powerful, fanstastical tale that takes an unprecedented look into our universe, and is transformed by the graphic novel format. Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson’s adaptation retains the integrity of the original novel, and Raúl Allén and Patricia Martín’s magnificent illustrations, along with cover art by Bill Sienkiewicz.

At the height the 1960's Batman television shows popularity, Shonen King manga magazine in Japan serialized fifty-three chapters, starring The Dark Knight, which were all written and illustrated by Jiro Kuwata. These rare Batman tales were known by relatively few outside of Japan until award-winning designer Chipp Kidd's 2008 book, Bat-Manga!: The Secret History of Batman in Japan, introduced us to a whole new generation of Batman fans. Angus reviews the first story arc in the series in celebration of Manga Month! Please drop us a message on the anchor app or send us an mp3 or email to [email protected].
