Warriors Volume 2
Warriors Volume 2
Graystripe and Millie's journey to find Thunderclan has only just begun when the pair is faced with a series of obstacles that seem insurmountable. Getting out of Twolegplace alive isn't nearly as simple as expected, and Millie's unfamiliarity with life in the wild makes it a challenge for Graystripe to even keep the both of them moving forward. But just when a temporary refuge is in sight, conflict with a tribe of barn cats threatens to break the travelers apart for good!
Mew! Hiss! Roowl!
I've always been interested in adapting a story to different media and formats. Whether it's a book to a movie, a comic to a movie, or in this case, a book to a comic, each new incarnation presents different problems and opportunities. So of course, I leaped at the chance to edit one of our first co-published projects with HarperCollins. And I have to say, it's been an adventure and a pleasure. The Warriors is one of the top children's series out there, chronicling the legend of several rival clans of cats and their struggle to survive on the fringes of human civilization. Over the course of the series, the characters age and grow, accept new responsibility and face serious obstacles and tragedy. Creating a manga that captures the spirit of these wonderful novels, but still adds something new to the world of Thunderclan was a real challenge.
Fortunately for me, my editorial counterpart at Harper is amazing and the rest of the creative team is top-notch. Erin Hunter, the original creator of the property, was incredibly supportive and enthusiastic about every step of the process. The team of James L. Barry on art and Dan Jolley on story really brought this terrific concept to life. Balancing the necessary realism—including the level of detail that Erin imparts to cat behavior and the world of the clans—with a manga sensibility was a lot of fun, and I'm thrilled with the result!
We present to you loyal readers a spin-off story that explores the fate of a beloved character who had disappeared from the novels series about halfway through, and whose fate had been left uncertain...until now!
Our tale starts with Graystripe, second in command of Thunderclan, several months after his capture, and we discover that he has been living with a Twoleg family as a kittypet. His wild instincts are being dulled by his easy life, but the pull to find his clan and rejoin his comrades is strong, and so a decision must be made, and a quest begun!
