    Of course they cancel it after I finish the article.

    Next we'll have the Essential Guide to Cancelled Essential Guides. Which will then be cancelled.

    The last two guides were pretty movie heavy. It was gonna be nice to have an EU-centric one for once. That was the whole point.

    If we get an ST-based one, I'm sure some of Dan's work and some of the art will make it into it... but it'll no longer be the ficus.

    That's what's sad.




    NB I refuse to fix that typo bc it's hilarious.

    I was really looking forward to this. There was so much potential.

    Don't worry, I'm sure there'll be a rush of fan ficus to fill the void.

    I wonder if NEGTC will remain in print.

    Anyway, are we sure this is cancelled or could the Edelweiss catalog listing be wrong?

    Ficusses and edelweisses are NOT part of the same genus.

    I blame Doug Wheatley. This smacks of his usual masterpiecing.

    It's OK. Wheatley's only finished an arm or two by now.

    So certain, are we that correct, Edelweiss is?

    Since Dan has previously gone on record explaining that the third Essential Guide has been "paused", I'm inclined to believe any date set on any website is and has been incorrect, because nobody really knows what's happening with the films yet (I mean heck, even the films are struggling setting a release date!). So I don't think Edelweiss's announcement is anything particularly new. But I highly doubt the whole thing has been scrapped.

    All I see is "because of the movies" and it makes me want to see them even less than before.

    While I doubt that the EGC will ever be released (at least the way it was intented), I do hope that we will get to see all the Art that has been made for it so far.

    Poor Wheatley. He was almost done drawing the first character's hand.
