Zelda A Biography Effortless
The first American zelda comics were published by the now defunct Valiant Comics Company in 1990 and were based mostly on this terrible show. All of the mystery and fun from the game were washed out by the bland American art style and hokey tone.
Picture a young boy, probably seven or eight years old, wandering in an inhospitable land of crazed, stunted trees and huge mile high rock cliffs. The boy has no idea how he got there. He hears a cry for help, and without thinking runs to investigate. He finds a dying nursemaid who has lost her charge, a beautiful princess who has been stolen by creatures that are part goblin, part drooling pit bulls.
The zelda fan base is a rabid fan base, and maybe they will take the more Completest view-point towards their comics collection than others, but still: Since 2005 there have been three more big budget Zelda video games. With three more Zelda games to adapt, will readers still bother to care years after the launch of the games they were associated with? Fans maybe, but casual readers probably wont.
While all of these comics are extremely easy to find online as free downloads, zelda fans have driven the demand for the actual physical copies of these flawed, early works through the roof! Copies of the Valiant comics can easily fetch anywhere in the $30-40 range and are a safe bet for comics investors.
YOU are a child of destiny, she rasps. Find her, Find the Princess she requests, and then speaks nevermore.
The Legend of zelda is a marketing giant, and comic books make up one tentacle on that multi-armed Octorok. Zelda comics are never going to sell as much as the games their based on, and neither is ever going to be able to stand up against a NEW idea, fast fun and accessible based purely on creativity and imagination.
