New Stargate Atlantis comics??

Dynamite Entertainment has announced that it has acquired the comic book rights to all three Stargate series. A $1.00 Stargate #0, featuring sample chapters from each series, will precede Stargate Universe, by writer Chuck Dixon and artist John Watson, Stargate Atlantis, by Doug Murray, and the flagship title, Stargate SG-1, written by Brandon Jerwa. The Atlantis and SG-1 series will be direct continuations of the TV series starting at “season six” for the former and “season eleven” for the latter. The blanks in the creative teams should be filled in shortly (maybe at Comic-Con?) and you’d better believe that Pop Culture Zoo will be bringing you any and all info as it is announced!

I'll definitely check out the SGA ones to see what's going on!

And hoping that they won't stick exclusively to that "season six" declaration. I'd like to see some "lost missions" from the earlier years with Weir, Beckett and Ford. :(

That'd be pretty cool, actually. And now I'm wondering whether it will be an actual series with separate arcs that make up the whole, or more like a mini series where they release stories in six issue chunks without actually connecting the stories together, which is what they seem to do with comic versions of things.

Yes, I'd definitely prefer the miniseries arc format as well. It would open the comic up to a wider variety of stories from all points in the series timeline, which one would think would be more attractive to the writers working on the comic. ;)
