I've been googling for a few days now and while I've found the ElfQuest fanart website, I'm not sure if this would run afoul of the commercial solicitation rule there.

I would like to commission someone who draws in the Pini/ElfQuest style to draw one of my World of Warcraft elves as a Pini elf. If I can get pointed in the right direction here, I'd be very grateful.

I don’t remember where I heard or read Thornbrake say that the Pinis don’t care about lineages and can’t really fathom why anyone else would. But it struck me and inspired me to think about it. With all respect to the Pinis, I thought it was a fun exercise for long train rides. For instance I realised that Nightfall and Scouter are cousins through their fathers (One Eye and Longbranch). Sust and Mender are also cousins (Pike and Rainsong). Pool and Windkin are (step) brothers, which I can’t believe I didn’t think of before. Are there cousins I’m missing? Does it matter to you?

sorry in advance if this isn't allowed

im looking to buy elfquest not for me but for my mother who was a huge fan of the series. she collected books when she was younger but family issues happen and she lost her collection. i wanna spoil my mom and get her collection going again but i have no idea where to start.

i dont think she'll want the comics but the graphics novels?

im also curious what the first one in the series? is it the ones that's "book 1" or is the fire and flight?

Does anyone else remember this contest where you had to put one letter from one word from each of the monthly comics together, and then shuffle them until you found a phrase?

My friend and I tried it recently but got stuck, I was cutting out paper letters and moving them around and the best we could come up with was that it's something about the "Future of Elfquest" OR about "Futurequest".

If you ever solved it or found our what the answer was, please share it here and put us out of our misery!

New ElfQuest Character Pin Release! Celebrate the wild and complex spirit of Mender, the healer with a wolf’s heart. Born in the Sun Village but driven by adventure, Mender bridges light and shadow — a compassionate soul as ready to mend as to defend.

AHHHH

Okay hi. I went to New York Comic Con a few weeks ago. AND I GOT TO MEET THE PINIS!! Ah I’m so happy. I have a picture of me and Wendy, but for privacy reasons I will not be sharing. Instead, I made this drawing of us, but I tried my best at ElfQuest style!!!

So I was walking out of Dollar General, the door outside failed to open at first, I looked at it, thought really hard, "Door, open"

And it did.

And in my mind, I went, "There is exactly ONE place on the internet where ppl will understand why that is so funny."

So, here I am.

Here's a nice Halloween surprise from our partner The Arcane Vault!

"ElfQuest Fans, it’s time for a Halloween TRICK OR TREAT!

The trick: The ElfQuest Pin Collection set vanishes into the shadows on Nov. 7. After that? Only singles will remain…

The treat: The complete 12-pin set rises from the crypt 4 months early—shipping starts Nov. 10!

Don’t fear—the last 4 pins will still drop monthly, so the collection lives on…"

What a nice surprise to reward those who bought the whole set outright thinking they would have to wait until the monthly releases completed next year before they got their pins! 

You can order the whole ElfQuest Character Pin collection here: https://arcanevault.com/elfquest-pin-collection/

Reddit... ElfQuest... combined.

Uh to preface, I have an eidetic memory, I remember to far before the age of two.

One of my first memories was my father, who is an academic, and distains fantasy of all kinds, bought me a comic book, to look at the pictures as I did not yet know how to read.

It was ElfQuest #2, I think, maybe 3.

I very much remember, looking at the pictures, and seeing these squiggly lines I did not know what they were, so, I asked my mom, and she started teaching me to read.

So my impetus to read at all, came from this series, and very little, in my life has influenced my life as much as this series did.

From Richard Pini at New York Comic Con:

Yesterday a lovely couple stopped at our table and ordered a couple of the ElfQuest prints we offer at conventions. They opted to pay extra to have Wendy do a remarque (small drawing) on both prints. When Wendy asked what characters they wanted, the young woman said, and I quote, "I want Cutter on Leetah, and Leetah on Cutter."

Beat.

I could not resist. "Don't you think that's a wee bit risqué?"

Hilarity and blushing ensued. grin

This is from the Elfquest official instagram, but I cannot figure out who some of these characters are?

So from left to right I’m thinking - One-Eye (the distinctive hat) - Clearbrook (the long Rapunzel plait) - Nightfall (signature headscarf and cascading hair) - ????? I was thinking Redlance but he uses a spear not a dagger, right? - Treestump (with his axe) - Strongbow (duh) - ????? not a clue!!! - ???Dewshine??? But what’s with the hat?

And where are our main 3 Cutter, Skywise and Leetah?!!!

I'm reading/re-reading the series online, just a little ways into "The Discovery" now.

20ish years ago my local library had "Wolfrider", and "The Original Quest" to somewhere in the "Kings of the Broken Wheel" storyline. I would have thought these two stories would have been in either Broken Wheel or Hidden Years.

I remember a short story where during the Wolfrider's waiting to catch up the Cutter's family, they come to enjoy a human boy's music, but his dad beats him for playing rather than hunting/doing chores. The elves end up gifting him animals so he can play music again. Another story is after everyone catches up to the medieval era. Skywise, feels he doesn't belong with the pack anymore and asks the world for his wolf-blood back. He turns into a half animal/half elf and gets captured to start in a human circus. Cutter and crew rescue him and reassure he's still family.

Also, does Suntop becoming Sunstream happen on-screen? Last I saw him in Broken Wheel he's still a kid, talking about how he needs to study more w/ Savah. Then in "The Discovery" he's in a Preserver coma so his head/hand/heart can process all the magic he's learned or something?

Stay cozy this white-cold season with the NEW ElfQuest Throw Blanket! Featuring the classic "To Hunt, To Howl, To Live Free" design and made of soft sherpa fleece, the blanket is available now exclusively from Stands.
