BITTEN: The Full Moon Book

by Raul Garcia, Cornelia Funke, Francisco Herrera (Illustrations)

Entering high school is tough enough as it is, but things get even more complicated when you’ve been bitten by a werewolf!

International best Selling YA author Cornelia Funke (The Inkheart Trilogy) teams up with comic book artist and character designer extraordinaire Francisco Herrera (Spiderman’s Venom, The Prodigies, Megamind) and former Disney Animator and film Director Raúl García (Aladdin, The Lion King, Pocahontas) to create a wild and furry world where Hollywood werewolves are real and hiding in plain view!

This lavishly illustrated sketch book documents the creative process of transforming Cornelia Funke’s best-selling “Little Werewolf” books into a brand new, exciting graphic novel series. Hundreds of sketches and color studies show the process of fleshing out the characters of the book as we discover the story of Matt, Lisa, and the incredible odds they have to face to battle an old curse.

I love the breakdown of the sets, the environments, and of the characters to make up this animated horror story. I like the nods to Boris Karloff, Vincent Price, and the obvious Peter Lorre in character designs. I keep wondering if this is still on going or if it’s just a failed, “what-if” project. I would love an animated short or a full comic book volume of this. Kickstarter this!

Based on a book written by Cornelia Funke titled "Young Werewolf". Shows sketches of each character. Best to read Funke's book before reading this book.
