Gandalf and Elfquest

I always admired the beautiful artwork on Elfquest, but I never got around to checking out the series.  It seemed like such an epic adventure that I would have to read the complete collection to appreciate it all, not a series that I could just jump into the middle of with a random issue.  I heard off an on about an animated adaptation being planned, but nothing ever seemed to come of that.  Hopefully It will get made one of these days.

The Hulk and Elfquest

Even though it preceded a very cool moment, I was a little confused at Bruce Banner's "I'm always angry" comment at the end of The Avengers.  Does he now have the ability to switch to the Hulk at will if that's the case? Does he no longer have to be in a state of extreme emotion?  Hopefully this will be expanded upon in the upcoming sequel, where The Hulk is said to have a larger role.

The Atom and Elfquest

I wasn't near any shops that sold Elfquest when it began, but I remember really appreciating the art from the series that I saw in The Comics Buyer's Guide and other publications.  Wendy and Richard Pini created a whole fantasy world that was epic in scope and lavishly illustrated.  I had read for years about the desire to translate Elfquest to animation or live action, but nothing ever seemed to materialize with that.  That surprises me, it seems like a natural property to adapt.
