Coldplay have revealed that they will release a comic book based on their latest album, 'Mylo Xyloto'.
The 'Charlie Brown' band will release the comic in six installments with Kung Fu Panda writer Mark Osborne on writing duty.
The Mylo Xyloto comic will be available from February 2013 and will be officially unveiled at Comic-Con International in San Diego this week.
Speaking about the comic, Coldplay said: "Three years ago we had an idea with our friend Mark Osborne about a character called Mylo Xyloto - 'xylo' as in xylophone, 'to' as in toe. Gradually Mylo's story and universe came together and this ended up providing the backdrop for the album and tour. Now we're proud to announce that early next year the story is going to come out as a six-part comic. We hope you like it. It was fun making it."
Discussing the character the 'Mylo Xyloto' album has inspired, Osbrone said that he was a; "young Silencer on the front lines of a war against sound and color in the world of Silencia. Mylo discovers that the enemy he’s been trained to hate his whole life might not be the enemy after all."
Meanwhile, Coldplay recently confirmed that they allow their fans to get the very best seats at their live shows, thus ensuring a great atmosphere.
