Kickstarter – Peter Pan: The Graphic Novel – Vol. 1
The Peter Pan: The Graphic Novel – Vol. 1 project at Kickstarter is Renae De Liz’s attempt to adapt the original Peter Pan story to comics and is, as of this writing, looking like it may be successfully funded. The first in a planned series of three books, what I find really attractive about the project is De Liz’s artwork; seriously, check out this one image and then visit the project for more samples from the book.
My goal is to adapt the original novel of Peter and Wendy by J.M. Barrie into a graphic novel that is as true to source as possible. The original story is one of the most beautiful novels I’ve every read, and has always been a huge inspiration to me. I feel current adaptations leave a lot of the original story left untold, or have fundamentally changed story elements. Therefore I feel doing this Graphic novel is a terrific way to highlight the fantastic original story of Peter Pan in it’s entirety. I also intend to further explore Peter Pan and Captain Hook’s backstory by adapting parts from J.M Barrie’s The Little White Bird ( prequel to Peter and Wendy) and a little known information given by Barrie about Jas. Hook into the story.
