Robot 6 is reporting about the publisher Del Ray canceling Marvel Manga series: It looks like the manga publisher Del Rey has canceled the second volumes of its X-Men: Misfits and Wolverine: Prodigal Son. The news broke in a conversation on Twitter , where manga blogger Deb Aoki tweeted a tip that the books had been canceled and Lissa Pattillo noted that they had been taken down from retail sites. Dave Roman, who co-wrote the X-Men books with his wife, Raina Telgemeier, confirmed this in two tweets of his own: Wow! News travels fast! @goraina and I super disappointed since it was written as a 2-part story and it will be unfair to readers. We only found out last week. We still don’t have a lot of the details beyond it being a cost of licensing vs. profits issue. Roman added that he had seen some of the pencils and assumed that the artist, Anzu, was “far along, but still deep into it.” Antony Johnston, the writer of Wolverine: Prodigal Son, confirmed that book’s demise on his blog: Unfortunately, the simple truth is that not enough people bought them. Despite WOLVERINE being praised by readers and selected for two library YA lists, despite MISFITS making it onto the New York Times bestseller list, and not least despite all the efforts of Del Rey themselves and our editors there, there just weren’t enough readers to justify the costs. This is, sadly, more common than you might think in comics. Click here to keep reading.

This article comes to us from SlashFilm : You might recall that last August, Pixar fans spotted some concept artwork featuring a boy and his dinosaur , on sculptor Greg Dykstra ’s wall in behind the scenes b-roll footage for Up . We had wrongly assumed that the project was a Pixar short film called “ Night And Day ” by Teddy Newton , a storyboard artist on The Iron Giant , Character Designer for The Incredibles and Presto , making his Pixar directorial debut. That short film is attached to Toy Story 3 ., and is not the dinosaur project (you can hear more about the short in my previous video blog or see the first photo here ). So what is the Dinosaur project? We finally have our answer, and it is a bit anti-climactic – a Discovery Channel television special called Reign of the Dinosaurs . Discover Channel announced their 2010-2011 upfront slate today, hich includes a collaboration with Pixar on Reign of the Dinosaurs . Here is some more information about Pixar’s Reign of the Dinosaurs. REIGN OF THE DINOSAURS Avatar meets Jurassic Park as the latest paleontological research meets Hollywood story telling. Discovery Channel teams with the top creative talent from Disney and Pixar to create an unparalleled television event.
