Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })In the 1990s, Boys Life published a Comic-Book Adaptation of the first two Norby stories. Crediting Janet Asimov and Isaac Asimov as the original authors, they published the first book, Norby, the Mixed-Up Robot, from January 1990 to July 1991 (skipping the February 1991 issue). The second book, Norby's Other Secret, was published from January 1993 to December 1995 (skipping the March 1994, July 1994, March 1995, and August 1995 issues). The artist for the first adaptation was Ernie Colón, while Terry Tidwell created the second adaptation.While the artists had to condense the story to make it fit within the pages allotted by Boys' Life, their most dramatic change from the books is probably deciding to draw Norby with a red body and forward-facing feet/eyes, rather than his silver body and ability to move/see forward and backward with identical ease.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Adaptation Distillation | |
| Norby (Comic Book) / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: Much of the dialogue and internal thoughts are removed to make the story shorter, as each page has to tell a small story on its own. This includes the discussion of positronic brains and the Three Laws of Robotics with the robot salesman, as well as discussions of Solarism and Oneness, or Jeff's visit with Zi and Zargl. Such elements were typically cut because this is an adventure comic that only gets one page a month. By shifting from a purely written medium to a visual medium, many of the descriptions were able to be ignored as well, simplifying the process. | |

Adaptational Backstory Change: Rather than Albany losing her clothes in school, the story is changed to trick fountain pens. She's still recognized as the first victim and Fargo as the culprit. | |
