A little more info on the new Streetfighter comic. An interview with Erik Ko of Udon, about what came be expected in the book.

I still have the original Malibu SF comic around here somewhere. My GOD how pathetic it was... it made the crappy SF2 manga look like absolute gold.
So far what's done looks good (aside from me not liking the way Blanka is colored there), but I have to wonder how long that will last.

Do they solve mysteries while traveling the country with their talking pet Blanka?

Thanks for the link, CrazyMax!
"We are working directly with Capcom Japan to create a story based on the existing material from the STREET FIGHTER games. Our goal is to make this as true to the original as possible, in both story and art. In another words, we wish the readers would feel that this book is done by Capcom themselves. That is what we want to achieve."
THANK GOD. This is what I've been waiting to hear.
There's a Sticky Thread on this Forum in the Fighting Game Discussion Thread where you could actually talk to Studio Udon! Just the fact that someone from Studio Udon is regestered at Shoryuken shows the dedication these guys have to Street Fighter! Hell, they even read Tiamatroar's Plot Guide!!!!

link didn't work
when I used to read the forum at shoryuken.com it was more of a flaming community.

It depends on which forums you visit. Some can be very good. I've usually been in good forums were the occasional troll will appear. And then everyone beats up the troll and the troll either reforms or leaves. YMMV though.
BTW, it is very reassuring that they said they were working with Capcom Japan. You see, we might finally get a good SF comic book.

YMMV?
It's good that they say they are taking their ques only from Capcom and the games. No offense, and nothing I've ever typed on this board was ment to be offensive, but I don't like it when pro companies take their ques from fans, or when fans some how get input into the project. I can only think of two exceptions.

Seeing as how SF has managed to avoid having one central story in most of it's games [part of it's charm for me] any attempt, no matter how well intended, is probably going to annoy one fan or another since it won't conform to their interpretation of what SF is all about. Still, I'm looking forward to seeing the comic even if it doesn't live up to the version of SF in my mind's eye.

I never cared too much for Udon's linework but their coloring is stellar...wow :)
but um did you guys see that Takeshi guy's link at the bottom of the comicon page? hmmm...wasn't that the Ryu art used in SF2Turbo or something???
I'll flip through it when it comes out...but I hope there's no more ripoff art..

KO: We wanted to do it. We are ready to do it anytime. It is totally up to Marvel. I guess if enough fans will tell Marvel this is a good idea, it will happen!
I would pay to see this... really, I would... despite the fact that I don't like the game series so much.

Good to see there was a post directly after that from Erik Ko explaining that it was an intentional tribute to earlier SF art. Considering I've seen that same basic pose in SF2T art [was that done by Nishimura? CRMK? I don't remember] and the ending portrait for SSFTR on the GBA [art by Edayan] and all three pieces are officially approved by Capcom I don't think it's anything to get too worried about. At least the Udon series is already looking better than the SF movie adaptation by Takayuki Sakai which featured plenty of borrowed poses in addition to a lot of generally weird looking art.
