Bestselling author Chuck Palahniuk has written 14 novels, sold more than 5 million books in the United States, written a New York Times bestselling graphic novel and an acclaimed coloring book and had multiple books adapted for film—and now Palahniuk's prose will be inspiring musical performances across the country. This fall, the Bushwick Book Club will present three shows in celebration of and inspired by Palahniuk’s latest book Legacy: An Off-Color Novella for You to Color. The novella, featuring colorable illustrations by Steve Morris and Mike Norton, is on sale from Dark Horse Books on November 7 and performances for Legacy will be held in Brooklyn, Portland and Los Angeles in November.

It’s rare to receive praise from our licensors. Ultimately, we’re a licensee that makes a contract for something that people love here, but generally, the breadth of distribution and the amount of sales in the US aren’t comparable to those in Japan.

What truths will be revealed, what arguments put to rest? Whatever happens, Historia is bound to inspire lengthy, enthusiastic discussion among Zelda fans, not to mention new material.

On January 29, The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia will be released, but it was almost one year ago, February 6, 2012, that Nintendo contacted us to see if we were interested in doing the localization, and it was shortly thereafter that I first held Shogakukan’s Hyrule Historia in my hands and said, “Wow.” I cracked the spine and pored over every single page.

Deva Zan was no ordinary project for me as an editor. If I were to start from a personal level, I’m of the generation whose first exposure to Japanese pop culture was the anime Speed Racer. You might not associate Yoshitaka Amano’s ethereal style as an illustrator with the manic demon on wheels, but at age fifteen Amano was already working at Tatsunoko, Speed Racer’s studio, during the production of the show.
