HARPER DESIGN

A behind-the-scenes reveal of Steven Spielberg's upcoming 2011 motion capture 3-D film based on the universally beloved comic book series The Adventures of Tintin that will answer the inevitable question: how on earth did they do THAT? With forewards by both Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson, this book is the ultimate authority on the film event of the year. Created by the Belgian artist Herg?, Tintin is a beloved comic strip character, a teenage reporter who travels the world with his dog Snowy doing good deeds and foiling bad guys. The character made his debut in 1929 in a Belgian newspaper and has been chronicled in dozens of illustrated books, translated into many languages, and has sold more than 200 million copies worldwide. Now Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson are teaming up to launch The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn in late 2011 (releases in most global markets October, 2011; releases in US December 23, 2011). This first of two movies brings to life the enormously popular books by Herg? in performance-captured 3-D form. The conceptual design and visual effects for the movie are being created by Weta Workshop, the multi-Academy Award winning company who helped create global blockbusters such as Avatar, The Lord of the Rings, District 9, King Kong, The Chronicles of Narnia and many others. The very same Weta artists who are working on the movie will be launching THE ART OF TINTIN book in both paper and digital format in late 2011. So readers will get the inside story telling how the movie progresses from the original works of Herg?, through the movie design process, to the final look on the big screen. Weta Workshop's artists have created the special make-up effects, physical characteristics, stunning landscapes, and most importantly, Tintin's dog Snowy. The film is to be shot with an atmospheric, film-noire aesthetic with sweeping European cityscapes and vistas, a veritable feast for the eyes. This book illuminates the creative design process, detailing interactions between Weta's artists, Peter Jackson, and Steven Spielberg. It will include hundreds of images from concept art and storyboards to photographs of the props and sculptures, as well as insightful remarks from the artists themselves. Many of the images included in this book have never been seen before, including work that was eventually cut or barely glimpsed in the finished film. THE ART OF TINTIN offers an unrivalled look into the creative minds and hands responsible for lifting the beloved figures of a comic book classic off the page and onto the big screen.

POCKET BOOKS

by James Swallow 1993: A decade ahead of its time, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine began with an eerily prophetic and untold backstory: the controversial military occupation of an alien world, and the violent insurgency that fought against it. Now the 40-year saga of warring ideologies, national security, terrorism, greed, secret intelligence, moral compromise, and embattled faith is given its due in the three-part Terok Nor series. What begins as a benign visitation to the bountiful planet Bajor from the resource-poor Cardassian Union becomes a conflict of competing national interests. Seen through the young eyes of many original and familiar Star Trek characters, the personal, political, and religious struggles between the two sides quickly spiral out of control, shaping the futures of both heroes and villains in an unforgettable, emotionally charged, and action-packed tale of tragedy and hope.

A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! The latest manga masterpiece (and soon to be anime series) from Clamp is Kobato. This original tale tells the story of the titular heroine KOBATO HANATO, a mysterious young girl on a mission to relieve the suffering and pain of others. Possessing a magical flask that can heal heartache, Kobato is very eager to help as many people as she can. Sadly, she is forbidden to fall in love with any of her 'patients,' a restriction which might just get in her way as the story progresses. Kobato is resplendent in her Japanese kimono, based off of Clamp's cover for Mokona's 'Mokona no Okimono Kimono' book. The long flowing robe is bright orange with a multi-color vegetation pattern along the hem. Around Kobato's waist is a large green sash decorated with pink and white flowers, and emerging from below the kimono is a white garment fringed in blue, which matches her cap and traditional Japanese style umbrella. Her pretty face has a wide-eyed surprised expression and is framed by brown hair that drapes down her back to about knee-level. Kobato's right hand rests upon a golden bird cage housing her companion Ioryogi in his stuffed toy dog form; the bottom of the cage opens so you can remove him. The young girl and the cage fit perfectly on the included cloud display base. Sculpted by Kouei Matsumoto, Kobato stands approximately 7 inches tall.
