The book synopsis:
Based upon the cult television series, ‘The Tribe’. Forced to flee the city in their homeland – along with abandoning their dream of building a better world from the ashes of the old – the Mall Rats embark upon a perilous journey of discovery into the unknown. Cast adrift, few could have foreseen the dangers that lay in store. What is the secret surrounding the Jzhao Li? Will they unravel the mysteries of The Collective? Let alone overcome the many challenges and obstacles they encounter as they battle the forces of mother nature, unexpected adversaries, and at times, even themselves? Above all, can they build a new world in their own images – by keeping their dream alive?

 The Tribe will officially be released on DVD, Stateside, on March 13th 2012 by the distributor Shout! Factory.
As a four-disc box set, it will comprise of the first 26 episodes of season 1 of The Tribe. (No word has been said yet of a part 2 box set).
The only thing I can judge right now is the artwork, and I’m loving the it! It’s a shame it’s not the full series in one set. But who knows, with the ongoing revival of The Tribe, hopefully the new boxsets will have more special features? (Fingers crossed for commentaries!)
You can pre-order the boxset, right now, from Amazon.com by clicking here.
With thanks to Ryan M. for the info via Facebook.

He did break a few hearts when he answered the question many fans have been asking…
Q: Dwayne very personal question but are you gay?
A: No, but I feel for those who are persecuted and don’t like homophobia and The Tribe was all about trying to create a world where you can be yourself and express yourself in a safe environment.
