July 9, 2008 - Everything else on this page just became history. We've received word that Warner Brothers has made a deal to develop and produce an Elfquest movie.

April 2005 - Before you click on any of the links below, you should read this first. We hope it will answer all those who've asked, "When will you update the EQ movie page?" Everything else is history; the future is yet to be.


It used to be that the most asked question in all of Elfquest was, "When's the next issue coming out?" That, of course, was born of the fact that in the beginning all Wendy and I could manage was one solitary issue every four months. So the old question has been replaced with, "What about the Elfquest animated movie?" A lot of people have been waiting a long time for this event.

History...

We have available, for your viewing pleasure, a complete history of the Elfquest movie project.

Updates and sneak peaks...

We also have updates on the status of the movie, a few storyboards from the pre-production team, and some paintings done by Wendy to show off what some of the scenes from the movie might look like.
