Default Scion to release comic book

This just in, from the lips of Corporate themselves to your ears. You are the first to hear this – so be privileged.

Scion is releasing a Comic Book. That’s right. After careful review, they are coming out with comic book characters to represent Scion.

For the xA, we have “xActo”. He sports a mean looking Yellow xA (like LJ’s car).

For the xB, we have “xBmc”. He sports the Orange xB (the Pioneer 5-star axis xB).

For the tC, we have “tCya”. She sports the Absolute Red tC.

Now, as a sort of promo, tCya will be there at Scion Exposed in Dallas at the Texas Motor Speedway from 1p – 3p to sign autographs. We figured that would be the time most of us would be showing up anyways. Anyhow, the idea for her is to promote the comic Book.

Now, info on the comic book...

Every Scion Owner will have one in their mailbox by the 1st week of December. They will raffle some off (the Prototypes) at the Exposed Event on Sunday. You should start to see them on our showrooms by the new year.

Also, tCya will make a debut appearance at Club Che the night of the Pre Party. We will be giving away 10 free copies of the comic book that night as well. I will shoot an e-mail across to you a little later on to show you the comic book characters, that is, if any of you are interested....

Remember, you heard it first from tSR (team Scion Richardson).

Later!

You shoud be able to open a pdf in Photoshop.
I think you can "Save As" a .jpg... don't quote me on it, though.

Default more updates on the comic book.

from what I know right now, tCya's character is gonna be a girl set up like you see here with GREEN hair and her little cap like that.

Her "actress" who depicts tCya will be at the Pre Party. From what I know of tCya in real life - she's this 5'4" Asian that is supposed to look like the picture.

For the Pre Party, she'll blend in (except for the Green Hair) and for the Event, she's supposed to dress just like the picture.

More than likely, the character's genre will change throughout this campaign - but maybe we can expect photos as well as commercials or billboard ads of this new thing Scion is doing.

I believe in the advertising that Scion does - how it stands out - so I believe this is gonna work for them. Let me know what you think.

If you read Max Boost cartoon in the Import Tuner magazine, they already feature an xB as Max's ride (and an AE86).

Yet another reason to buy a new Civic ;P

Terrible idea with terrible artwork..
I also like that they got rid of the glass roof on the tC, real nice.

and is it just me or that tC is a bit off-shape? Maybe it's got a a body kit since the front grill opening area seems different.

I think its supposed to be the Kaminari kit, at least that is how it strikes me. The art is just horrible, thats all there is to it. just look at the xB, the 5axis xB has a chopped roof, yet the windows in this one are LARGER THAN NORMAL
