This can't be a re-issue of the Rising Stars comic in book form, because:
a) it's already out from a different company;
b) it wouldn't be a mass market edition;
c) it wouldn't be so cheap!
Has JMS novelised his comic? Anybody heard anything? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
This is an interesting find! I see Amazon also has it listed but with no more information than you already provided. This is the first I have heard about this and I think your hypothesis sounds good. I can see this published without the comic format since the story is good ... but I also find it a bit odd since it -is- about comic book hero types and it just makes more sense to read it in that format. Oh well, this will probably broaden the reader base and appeal to those people who don't get comic books.
Anyone want to ask about this in the moderated newsgroup and see if JMS replies?
I also noticed that iBooks is an e-book and printed book publisher. Maybe it will be available as an e-book eventually?
