Wow, I really don't think I ever saw a Tron Original Movie Adaptation comic before, or got it? Don't remember it ever coming out. Of course, a lot has happened the past few years, so maybe I'm just forgetting, but I think I would've remembered it.

It's so uncommon only "uncommon geek" has it. Thanks to FlynnOne for the signature!

I have this. Got it on sale when Borders was closing, maybe? (At least, that's how I got Betrayal, and I might've gotten this one at the same time. So, IOW, it was several years ago.)
Frankly, I wasn't that impressed. The person in this review quotes the beginning of the comic... yeah, I think stuff like that was unnecessary from the writer(s). Mostly because it's a film adaptation, not fanfic; I don't care to know one writer's personal waxing unless I know it came from Disney and not the writer's own head.
It's a fun read, but I'm too much of a purist when it comes to canon-ish stuff. I did like the illustration, except for taking issue with how some of the characters were portrayed (okay, I'm a purist there, too: if it's a graphic novel of a film, IMO the characters should look like the actors at least somewhat).
Amazon has it: http://www.amazon.com/Tron-Adaptation-ADAPTATION-May-18-11-Paperback/dp/B007SKHS1E/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1442460511&sr=1-2&keywords=tron
ETA: Okay, so when I search on Amazon under "books" for "Tron," I get all sorts of interesting things I'd never heard of.
A choose-your-own-adventure book???
An activity book??
And I totally want this old T82 popup book. What do you want? I'm busy.
Program, please!
Chaos.... good news. |

Thanks for the info and links
I actually have that pop-up book! Randomly saw it at a bookstore in some small town on the outskirts, if I remember correctly... caught me by surprise, as it's not the type of book I would've expected to come across there. I snatched it up, as it was inexpensive and cool... I never knew it existed.
