Will be released around the same time as the KOF 2002/2003 pack?

Looking at that cover reminds me that just once I would like to see a KoF main character who looked like they needed to shave. But why is 95Kyo on the cover instead of his 03 version?

Because the artist doesn't has a clue of what is he going to draw probably. Or to illustrate the three "generations". Whatever.

Still good news. 'Bout time any type of KOF Merchandise other than games and those horrible figures where Kyo had lipstick on was released in the US.

'Bout time Comics One brought out a KOF comic in the U.S., too. I remember talking to them at SDCC a few years ago about the pending release of an English-language version of the KOF Zillion comic, only to hear them announce a few months later that they'd canned the idea. Didn't they also recently cancel their planned release of the SVC CHAOS comic as well? (or is my memory just exceptionally bad today?)

It's coming out in Nov. Is that when the pack is coming out?

Capcom cancelled Comics Oneīs SVC. Because i guess they prefer that "wonderful" comic from Udon.

I donīt think SNKP had a date for the pack, only that itīs coming this year (the SS pack is next year), so November sounds about right. Both Ben Herman and an earlier comment from ComicsOne said they were going to tie the game and the comic.

The SVC Comic was canceled. Capcom USA was behind it. Don't know if it had anything to do with Udon producing SF Comics or they just didn't want people to see Ryu get beat up by Ryo and Dan and Sagat while Terry took out Sagat with one punch... Anyway, wasn't that great, no big loss.
I'd wish they'd bring out Zillion too. Andy Seto's Art... maybe some time down the road.

Heh, either K' is missing half of his mouth, or he's doing a really, really bad "Elvis lip".
And yeah, that Ash art is basically a recolored version of Falcoon's art.

AHAHAHA!
I'm at the fifth issue, and the "story" so far is.....HK-rific. Not that there's much of it though. The fight scenes take up a good chunk of the pages. A Super-sized Deluxe SUV-sized chunk.
The art varies - two, maybe three pages of cover quality art randomly scattered throughout the issue. And four or five other well coloured pages, typically at the starting and ending parts. The remaining twelve or so pages are well - blah.
Minor spoiler
Spoiler (Highlight to view) - Unless it's about cyborg polar bear abuse.
TA: Eh, wait a moment....how come there's a brown bear in the Artic?
*The GF flips pages*
GF: It's the polar bear from just now. Only that it got flambed by K'-
TA: But why did Maxima have to blast it too? DAMN YOU MAXIMA! POLAR BEARS HAVE FEELINGS TOO! EVEN CYBORG ONES!

Because the issue features a woodland battle between K and Kyo-3 (Kusanagi).
Who apparantly is a Kyo clone working for Heidern's Ikari Warriors and then healed by Chizuru after the battle. Spoiler (Highlight to view) - HK-rific

Nov of this year seems to be the release of the comic. Yay! Lots to look forward to.
When's the North American release of the 2k3/2k3 pack?

Not to be diadectic or anything, but did you read what I just posted?

haha most HK comics are like that. Dont expect anything other than the nice art though, cause frankly, i think the story i cram full of shit...i actually brought KOF 98/99 and odd couple of issues from 00/01 for the art...and a few good laughs at the idea they put in. Hopefully this one is different.

Considering you have Udon images in your avatar and sig, i donīt think your opinion should be considered...
Not that i like HK storylines, mind you.
