Brian Herbert and Kevin J Anderson complete their comic book trilogy with Dune: House Corrino

- STEPHEN JEWELL

JUST AS THE SECOND part of Denis Villeneuve's big-screen adaptation of Frank Herbert's classic 1965 novel arrives in cinemas, Boom! Studios is releasing Dune: House Corrino, the final volume in Brian Herbert and Kevin J Anderson's comic book version of their prequel.

"We saw the original trilogy of novels as three separate books, but one big story," the authors tell Red Alert. "Because we think of our writing as very cinematic and visual, we've always imagined this trilogy would work very well in the comics medium, but it's a very big epic. Keeping the adaptation as three separate series - House Atreides, House Harkonnen and House Corrino - made it much more workable to produce."
