In this A.V. Club interview with Achewood creator Chris Onstad, there is mention of expanding on and putting into book form the very popular "Great Outdoor Fight" storyline. Onstad says:
Since then, I’ve got all this content I’m talking about with kind of a major publisher. You know the "Great Outdoor Fight" story arc? I’m putting together… not quite a graphic novel, but I’m laying it all out as a linear story and adding new content and a ton of writing and background on what The Great Outdoor Fight is, and I’m hoping to publish that as some sort of perfect-bound, color-cover, proper edition. I’m just finishing the writing up for that. I think that will go over really well. Critically, I think, that was our finest hour. It really had a good response from people, which surprised me, because it was the first time I’ve really asked the audience to have patience, because they weren’t one-offs every day or gag strips every day. It was a three-month narrative that really paid off, and I was really pleased, because I was afraid to do it at first.
This would be an exceptionally cool book – I hope it comes together.
