Description I doubt anyone else except for Wendy Pini in the only comic he was ever in.

Poor guy, even died in the first few pages.

Well here's a little something for the underdog, killed by humans just before his son, Skywise was born!

Shale isn't mine, he's copyright Richard and Wendy Pini

Here's to Elfquest, one of the greatest comics ever! XD I grew up reading it, and I still enjoy it.

I love Shale!! And Skywise, and not to mention Cutter. lol nicely done btw
Even though he died in the first few pages, when I was like 8, I'd read over his pages...over and over lol I'm a fictional sadist, so they were awesome for me lol

lol would've messed up the whole timeline though...

but what about in the palace? >_< Skywise should have met his father's spirit there... lol

Nah I mean see him physically. How would it have screwed up the timeline? The humans could have kept him alive but dying and then as Bearclaw went to pick up Skywise in the water he could've brought him back to his father just before he died. I think it would've worked out

I'm glad to see more and more fanart for Elfquest. And the fact that there's Shale fanart is even more awsome! ^_^ Skywise is my favorite character, so... of course I'm gonna love anything related to him.

Wow, I have to learn a lot more about EQ and IΒ΄m glad there are some other people who know EQ...
its sad that in germany (where I have to live -___-Β° Elfquest is so damned unknown TT__TT
its so hard to get something here, even in comic stores itΒ΄s hard to buy some issues...

by the way, thefather of skywise is really cool! why did he die?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

PhoenixWildfire In reply to KyoMono [2007-10-03 21:19:23 +0000 UTC]

because he was trying to protect his lifemate (skyhigh) from humans :/ they hit him on the head with a rock and he fell from a 100 ft tall tree >_<

skyhigh liked being as close to the sky as she could while she was pregnant with skywise. ^_^

glad to find another EQ fan! Trust me, they're hard to find here too. You can get the black and white versions in manga form now though, I'm pretty sure they're available on amazon.com

yeah, there I do buy...but its sad that such a great comic is so much disregarded TT__TT
okay, its older than me but thats no reason^^

uhm, i heard/read somewhere that there should be a movie about EQ...are the rumors right...do you know something?

whew! i love him! i felt so bad when he died. hes my fave. character and he olny made a few apperences...so sad...do u no..id rain is father? cuz he's hugging shale after he dies.

PhoenixWildfire In reply to Mocksee [2007-04-12 18:30:00 +0000 UTC]

I don't think Rain is his father- I think Rain is Pike's father. Rain was cool too..

why did they kill at the characters of the old pack that were really cool? >_< They need to do more comics of that era, it'd be fun.

I don't know who Shale's father was...

oh it's great. a little raunchy at times, but i don't think you'd mind that lol

It's very fantasy-driven, so if you don't like harcore fantasy you probably wouldn't like it hehe I love it though, my mom let me read it when I was first 10.
