Copper Turns Into Gold

Scholastic is a winner with many parents with their imprint Graphix books since they first published Jeff Smith’s Bone. They acquired hot artist Kazu Kibuishi’s webcomic Copper. Fans of Kazu Kibuishi will find his work from the Flight anthologies who collect some of the media’s top talent, some either forgotten or undiscovered all ages artists.

Scholastic is making strides in the domain of all ages illustrated graphic novels and has hit the trifecta with this acquisition. Their other properties Bone and Kibuishi’s Amulet series also published by Scholastic will be translated into the big screen in the near future.  Just this bonus will add more revenues to their coffers and expand the line at Graphix with new publicity at the big screen.
