The Art and Making of Arcane

$54 (was $60)

It doesn't have a release date yet, but The Art and Making of Arcane is available to preorder for $54 (was $60) at Amazon. This 224-page hardcover comes with an acetate dust jacket with the exclusive art shown above, while the cover itself inverses the illustration's color scheme.

Along with never-before-seen concept art, the book contains over 20 interviews with key team members who created the show.

For Arcane fans looking to go all out, there's an Arcane Collector's Edition available from GKids Films. Normally $200, it has been discounted to $150 and includes original artwork, a diecast D20 dice, resin dice, a velvet dice pouch, double-sided poster, six art cards, and a fabric map.

With elaborate and imaginative animation, production on the sequel series has taken a long time, but the second and final season will debut on Netflix in a few months. The first season featured a stacked cast of performers, including Hailee Steinfeld (Vi), Annie Award winner Ella Purnell (Jinx), Katie Leung (Caitlyn), Reed Shannon (Ekko), Amirah Vann (Sevika), Mick Wingert (Heimerdinger), Ellen Thomas (Ambessa), and Brett Tucker (Singed).

Set in the League of Legends universe--the massively popular video game franchise made by made by Riot Games--Arcane follows iconic League champions Vi and Jinx as they get caught up in the power struggles between the utopian city of Piltover and the oppressed underground city of Zaun. Debuting in November 2021, the show received critical acclaim for its storytelling, incredible animation, and getting that one Imagine Dragons song stuck in your head for several months.

Arcane is one of the best animated shows in recent years, but Season 2 will sadly be its last.
