I suppose that as the author is selling one of his books in the year 2010, although as a comic book adaptation, it might be best to actually ask the author himself as to why no eBook version?

Sounds as though he still retains control over his book...

“I’m delighted that IDW is doing this adaptation of my book,” says Beagle, “and by the real concern they’ve shown for the integrity of what I wrote. Peter Gillis is a wonderful choice as a scripter — I couldn’t have done a better job myself — and Renae and Ray have brought my characters to vivid life. Together with IDW, they are achieving something I honestly hadn’t believed possible.”
