shelf-life.ew.com/2012/01/06/labyrinth-graphic-novel-prequel/Which only begs the question: will these be David Bowie songs? “We’re talking,” he says with a smile. “The budget to get Bowie to do one song would be the budget of all the books, but we’re talking to him to at least get his blessing or maybe an introduction or something.““He also has likeness approval,” Christy clarifies, an important fact given that the (as-of-yet-unannounced) artist on the book will be “drawing Jareth like a young David Bowie.” Oh squee! ;D

I hadn't heard about this before, thanks for posting the link. I don't normally buy comics but I definitely would if it was a prequel! Helen  |

I'm so excited by it! Having Brian Froud designing the look of it and the characters, involvement from Bowie, songs, and Jareth being drawn to look like Bowie, it already sounds better than the manga and something more in keeping with the film. The best way to stay up-to-date with news on it is to follow Archaia on Facebook. www.facebook.com/ArchaiaEntertainmentCan't wait. |

I know! I'm the same. At the moment this feels like the next best thing to another film, all the elements are right. |

They've been talking about doing this for a year or so now. I'm not exactly sure what they are waiting for, but the thought of Bowie doing a song, intro, etc would be AMAZING!!!

The prequel sounds awesome! It would be cool to see and be able to sing/play songs in it. Plus Jareth looking like Bowie and Brian Froud working on designing it-sweet!

Yeah, I saw that. Is that supposed to be Jareth? Where's his lovely blonde hair? Helen |

Maybe the standing-up-straight hair is from stress XD Hmmm....
