Zelda Comic To Be Reprinted

This particular comic that is based on The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past – a character from Nintendo that is loved by millions all over, made its first appearance in the pages of a Nintendo Power magazine many moons ago. Well, we are glad to bring you word that the comic itself will see a reprint later this year, and best of all is, it will be reprinted within the confines of a single volume collection, courtesy of Viz Media’s Perfect Square imprint.

This move was announced by the publisher, and just a little bit of background story for those who would like a little bit of a history lesson – the comic adaptation of this SNES title was illustrated by Shotaro Ishinomori. Shotaro Ishinomori happens to be the manga artist behind creations such as Cyborg 009 and Kamen Rider, where it first ran in serialized format in Nintendo Power in 1992, before ending up as a paperback in the year after that.

This out of print book would see the plot in A Link to the Past unravel in a book format, where there are some new twists thrown into the mix, not to mention new characters to fret over. We do not know how much the reprint of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past will cost, but we do know that if you are interested, you might very well want to start saving up for it from now on since it is tipped to arrive later this May. That ought to give you ample time to budget.
