@Caanan — though we’re always experimenting with cover lines, the “full color” makes a bit more sense in the context of book trade retailers, where color middle grade books are a rarity (and, until recently, illustrations at all were a rarity). In a sea of black-and-white chapter books, it always helps to call out your distinguishing attributes! :)

My 6-and-a-half year old son loves Ninjago and all things Lego, and has read and re-read the first two volumes of this series several times over now. Whenever he goes to the comic book store with me, sometimes he’ll see a book he wants, most of the time he doesn’t. And even when he does, he’ll thumb through it a few times and that’s it, even if it’s something he likes like Tiny Titans or Batman: The Brave and the Bold. These, though, he’s devouring.

I wonder why the need to mention it’s in “full color” right there on the cover? Are they distancing themselves from something? (The Twilight adaptation was black and white, wasn’t it?) Is there a preconceived notion among the parents who would buy this for their kids that all comics are black and white? Would anyone assume it’s NOT in colour?

A strange claim indeed…
