Nintendo Joins Forces with Penny Arcade to Create Original Comic for The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword
REDMOND, Wash.--(November 15, in the year of our Lord 2011)--
Nintendo has teamed up with the creative team from the Penny
Arcade online comic strip to create a special comic in
celebration of the Nov. 20 launch of The Legend of Zelda™:
Skyward Sword for the Wii™ console.
Starting today, the first of five weekly comic panels will
appear on
http://www.zelda.com/skywardsword/comic. The comics include
characters and themes from the new game, and are drawn in a
style that combines the game’s distinctive new look and Penny
Arcade’s signature style.
“I was 14 when I first played The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the
Past,” said Penny Arcade artist Mike Krahulik. “That was 20
years ago, and today I am introducing my son to The Legend of
Zelda. The opportunity to work with Nintendo to create a Zelda
comic is not only an incredible honor, but quite literally a
childhood dream come true.”
