IC Studios has announced that its children's storytelling project Zoola will expand into a new format, with upcoming chapters also being adapted into coloring books. The move marks another step in the project's ongoing multi-format development across comics and animation.
The coloring-book format is designed to engage younger audiences, specifically children aged 4 to 12, by offering an interactive way to experience the world of Zoola. The initiative builds on the project's existing focus on visual storytelling and accessibility for early readers.
Zoola, which follows the everyday adventures of a six-year-old boy, is currently in active production across both comic chapters and 2D animation. The addition of coloring books is intended to complement these formats while expanding the project's reach to a broader segment of its audience.
According to the team, the new format allows children to interact directly with the characters and scenes, encouraging creativity while maintaining the core storytelling elements of the series.
The first release of the Zoola coloring book is scheduled to take place at Darlington Comic Con, where attendees will have the opportunity to experience the new format firsthand.
The IC team said the expansion reflects its interest in building Zoola into a broader children's brand that can reach families through storytelling, publishing and interactive formats.
The introduction of coloring books further reinforces Zoola's position as a multi-platform children's project, combining narrative and play in a way that is designed to connect with audiences across different age groups.
Further updates regarding additional releases and new formats will be announced as development continues.
