Questioner
What's your release schedule for volumes two and three?
Brandon Sanderson
I think they are one a year.
Questioner
One a year?
Brandon Sanderson
Yeah, I'm sorry... They take so much time. It's possible they can go a little bit faster cause they did the whole script up front.
Questioner
Are they still drawing 'em and coloring 'em?
Brandon Sanderson
They are still drawing them and coloring 'em, yeah. We basically released this one as soon as we had it done. I told them they couldn't release it by little issues, cause I wanted people to have more of a promise they would get the whole thing so I said "You have to wait until you have at least a third of it done", but yeah. I think they are counting on this one paying for them to keep doing what they are already doing, so.

Updates on Secondary Projects
White Sand
Graphic Novel 1 was a huge success, and Graphic Novel 2 is finished and off to the printers. Expected publication date is February 2018. It will be the second of three.
The prose version is still available to be read. If you sign up for my mailing list, we auto-send you a link to it.
Status: Graphic novel 2 coming in early 2018.

We're going through and trying to fix all of those things for a later version that Dynamite will put out, just small inconsistencies. We will get rid of the boombox, we will get rid of the second IV because we got it in the first one. I don't how we missed it in the closeups. For all I know we told them to erase it, and that one they just didn't get to, so that's funny.
Questioner
What's going on with White Sand? The sequel?
Brandon Sanderson
...Sequel looks really good. It fixed a few problems I had with the first one, and improves upon it, and it's good. I think they're looking at February. The date that was online earlier was just somebody guessing, and it kinda got perpetuated and Amazon picked it up. But there was no official date. And February is what we're looking at. The art's all done, and it's looking really good. So, February.
Questioner
White Sand 2?
Brandon Sanderson
It is coming. It's not December, it's February. Amazon jumped the gun. That wasn't us, deciding on a date... It's February.

The graphic novel incorporating the first third of the book was a huge success, so we're going full-steam on the second part. And, of course, Khriss (one of the main characters) is the in-world author of many essays in Arcanum Unbounded. So Taldain is still peeking up here and there, reminding everyone it's part of the cosmere.
I don't have control over when the second part of the graphic novel comes out. That all depends on the artist's schedule—but I have assurances from the publisher that it won't take too terribly long. We'll post when we know for sure about release dates.
Status: Second volume actively being worked on.

Then, at the sixth chapter [of White Sand Volume 2] I was like "ugh... A new artist.." and then I was all like "Oh! A new artist!" I hope new Julius stays on for the rest of the series.
Peter Ahlstrom
Sadly, new Julius has other commitments, but the current proposed artist looks promising.
C0SM1C-CADAVER
Oh yeah? Who's that going to be?
Peter Ahlstrom
That's not for me to announce.
Jofwu
Are you able to speak to what drove the change to a new artist?
Peter Ahlstrom
I believe not.
Questioner
In White Sand 2, you changed the artist.
Brandon Sanderson
Yes, that was-- we didn't want to do that, I actually hate doing that, but it was with-- keeping-- meeting deadlines and things we were having trouble with the old artist, and so we just needed to make the switch so that we could get the books out. And that's the thing I like the least about the comics industry, artists changing, it's really-- yeah. But it is something that had to happen, so we made the call. We do intend that the sec- now this artist will do the book three, so we shouldn't change again, but, yeah.
With the Dark One comic, which we're working on right now, one of the things I've said up front is we need an artist to make sure that we don't ever change, because I really don't like doing that, I like the same visual style.
Questioner
Yeah, it's like an actor doing this huge thing--
Brandon Sanderson
Yeah, yeah, and then you get a new actor, it's like-- who?
