The content remaining in the ancient legacy HTML codebase is almost entirely static content with ad-hoc links to one-off files of inconsistent style and format, and those will be migrated into Django too at some point, but not today."

There's a new [i]The Lion King[/i] title in the works from Dynamite Entertainment:\r\n\r\nhttps://bleedingcool.com/comics/dynamites-november-2025-full-solicits-with-the-lion-king-and-panthro/\r\n\r\n[img]https://i.postimg.cc/LXRbFk87/166.png[/img]\r\n\r\n[quote]\r\n[b]THE LION KING #1[/b]\r\n\r\nWELCOME BACK TO THE CIRCLE OF LIFE! Get ready to return to the sweeping plains of Africa for a brand-new series of adventures starring Mufasa and Simba! Written and illustrated by acclaimed talent EDWIN GALMON and set in the golden time before the rise of Scar, *The Lion King* follows the ruler of the Pride Lands and his young heir as they navigate the complex network of relationships that make up their kingdom — and learn firsthand how to defend it against the forces that threaten it both from the outside and from within. Featuring appropriately epic covers by GALMON, MEGHAN HETRICK, JACOB EDGAR, and GIULIA LOMURNO, *The Lion King #1* deepens the bond between father and son that lies at the heart of one of the greatest animated films ever made!\r\n*WRITER AND ARTIST: EDWIN GALMON*\r\n[/quote]\r\n\r\nIf that cover art is anything to go by, this will be one good-looking comic!\r\n\r\nVia Mark."
