Carnako Has A Flavah (Hellgate Manga Incoming)



Not many of us can manipumalate MS Paint as gorgeously as I can. I know. Can't you tell from my uber powers of NOT BEING ABLE TO MAKE ANY STRAIGHT LINES WHEN IT COUNTS!?

I drew Carnako in celebration (read: mockery) of the upcoming HG:L "manga" and now you get to enjoy her too!

Today I have a special treat for all of you. A while back, we announced that manga megastar TOKYOPOP would be teaming up with Flagship Studios to produce a book based on Hellgate: London.

It's been kept under wraps since the announcement, but I just can't take it any longer. With the game shipping in a few weeks, and all of our great fans giving us so much support as we near the finish line, I have to give something back.

So, each day for the rest of this week, I'll be posting some rough sketches from the Hellgate: London manga. If you don't know much about it, don't worry - you're not alone. We're still not talking too much about the story, but I will say that it's by far the most unique take on the Hellgate universe yet. Not just in terms of story, but also art style.

The script is being written by Arvid Nelson. Comic fans might recognize the name as he's the creator/writer behind Rex Mundi, the popular Dark Horse comic. If you haven't checked it out, you should. Heck, Johnny Depp liked it so much he's not only producing the upcoming movie, he's starring in it. If you can't trust Edward Scissorhands himself, who can you trust? The point is, you can expect a top-notch story when the book is done.


A Korean artist named Jeong Mo Yang is doing the super duper artwork. These rough sketches only hint at his phenomenal skills, so keep an eye on this guy in the future.

Check back tomorrow for some more manga goodness. Thanks again everyone for all your support!
