Detective Pikachu Will Be Released in Comic Form

When the trailer for Detective Pikachu was debuted last Fall, I knew more than a few eight year olds who were excited for the film’s release. Several of my twenty-something and thirty-something friends were posting about it on social media because we also grew up with the pocket monsters like many kids in the 1990s and early 2000s. The live-action, CGI film starring Pikachu was originally a Nintendo DS game. The film is scheduled to open in theaters in May 2019. The Detective Pikachu comic will be released soon after the film.

Legendary Comics has taken on the project and has Brian Buccellato, who has also written The Flash and Injustice comic, and Nelson Daniel, who has drawn for Dungeon and Dragons and Ghostbusters attached to the project. The comic will be released both online and in stores this Summer!
