At Saturday morning's Make Mine Marvel panel at the New York Comic Con (look for a full report later today), Editor Nick Lowe and author Orson Scott Card jointly announced that the acclaimed writer's Ender's Game novels as a series of comics.

The series will be illustrated by Pascual Ferry, which will run parallel to the novel series, and will catch up to the latest novel Ender's Shadow.

Marvel will be creating the franchise look for all Ender's Game material from here on out, Card said.

Marvel just does such terrific work," Card enthused, adding that when the movie finally comes to pass, it will be based on the Marvel vision of the property.

Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow will debut in fall of 2008, according to a slide shown at the presentation.

The design work on the flash suit, Card noted, was designed with an eye on an eventual movie, that is, it's designed in a manner to clearly show the face of the character/actor.

The series will be written by Chris Yost with Jake Black as a story consultant. The deal will be similar in nature to Marvel's with Stephen King on the Dark Tower comics, with Card overseeing all details.

Ender's Game will start one month, with Ender's Shadow beginning just a month after, so there will be two series running for a period of time. Each series will be either five or six issues.

Not only am I excited for an Ender's Game comic, because Ender's Game is an awesome book, but I'm really excited for a movie. I'd see it in a heartbeat.
 
I don't like that pic.

Anyways, this freakin rocks! Ender's Game is my fave book series. <3

beta - my brother says there's supposed to be a movie this/next year. But considering I've been hearing about a movie for a few years now I wouldn't count too much on it.
 
I remember a ton of scenes in Ender's game with naked little boys. Which is funny, because Card is a raging homophobe who says that all homosexuals are perverts who choose to be pedophiles.
