It hasn't been all released. They'll likely gradually add the pages throughout the week.

Penny Arcade is making a Skyward Sword comic
If you visited Penny Arcade today, you would have learned that the boys were tapped by Nintendo to do a special five-page Skyward Sword comic. I've enjoyed Mike Krahulik's artwork as it developed over the years, and I am really excited to see his take on Skyward Sword's watercolor style. Understandably, Mike was excited but nervous -- the Zelda team of course had to approve of his designs. Never fear, though! Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma himself gave Mike's work a big thumbs up! I'm thinking good things are about to unfold! Starting today, one page will be released per week on the official Zelda homepage. You really ought to bookmark it and check in on it throughout the week! Penny Arcade Presents The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword [Zelda.com] Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)From a couple of nerds who made comics in their spare time to creating an official Zelda comic on behalf of Nintendo. Truly amazing how far the Penny Arcade duo have come. Man, as soon as I read "Penny Arcade" and "Zelda" in the same sentence, I knew I was in for the good stuff.
Also, what Gee-Man said. Their comes a certain point where you think you can't possibly get more hyped for a game.
And then something like this comes along and shatters that point completely. This is a really cool promotion, and I've never even read Penny Arcade. I did use to read a ton of web comics though. Nothing Nice to Say, Punks and Nerds, the Coffee Achiever, and Cultural Void were some of my favorites. Kinda feel like getting back into reading web comics now. Gabe's story in his post is even cooler than the image. Looking forward to seeing the rest, though.
@llort het It hasn't been all released. They'll likely gradually add the pages throughout the week. I enjoy Penny Arcade. They aren't 100 percent funny, but their hits are more often than their misses. This news pleases me. Cool, now all we need is the Samurai Champloo team making a bad ass anime.......damn my wishful thinking -_- Good for them. Some nice guys who deserve all the joy and happiness they have created for themselves. Surprising to see Nintendo actually wanting Penny Arcade to do this, considering how, eh... non-family friendly the PA comic really is. Then again, they have made stuff that could be considered relatively "safe".
