Will their be any previews of the art? Also, after the exhibit is released, will the art be online as well?

Holy sh*t.. that is badass. I am looking forward to the results!

Oh, interesting.

I assume there will be photos of the exhibits making their way around the internets at some point. Can't wait.

Oh wow, AND its going to Comic Con? Sign my ass up, I'm heading over to that con this year!

I wanna hear about the South Park comic books Germany is getting right now!

Wait, comic? Source?

Feast your eyes on these pages. That's "Good Times With Weapons" in comic-book form. And if you know German, feel free to translate the entry and post it here.

If only they made South Park comic books in the USA.

I got a German friend and family members, let me see if he can translate it.

Is that licensed?

It is very surprising news!

Apparently, secretly, quietly a South Park cartoon magazine called into life. Why not at Comedy Central, which reported the website is still strange, because after all, these are my knowledge, the first official South Park comic books in general. In addition is also available on the Publisher site yet about it. Perhaps it is a test edition, see how it arrives. You can already buy, and on 11 May, should the second coming.

Each issue contains a complete sequence for 3.50 € as a comic, although nothing is drawn separately, but original scenes from the series are provided with balloons. The first issue is "Good Times with Weapons", in the second it will be the pilot episode "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe". There is also always add a (more or less) suitable extra. The first issue is an inflatable machine gun.
Many thanks to Jaja , the magazine discovered and new photos of it has made:


Basically its the south park 2011 annual which has the storys Good times with weapons & Cartman Gets an Anal Probe

Wow what a way to make this art student happy. I'm so looking forward to seeing the artwork (if it ever appears online anyway).


Aweeeeesssommmeee~~~

too bad I can't go to Comic-Con. 8[ Ugh.

I am looking forward to the results!

Kind of disappointed that nothing will be drawn (just screencaps) for the comic, but it looks epic nonetheless!
