1)You said before the bahrag may not even know the matorian and other life forms live above ground will they find out that they do?
The Bahrag are a little too busy trying to free themselves from all that protodermis to worry about what is or isn't going on topside...

2)what will the price range of the winter 2003 sets be?
I can't answer that yet, it hasn't been finalized.

3).Are you suprised that even girls like Bionicles like me?
Well, we certainly know a lot of boys like BIONICLE - but girls respond to a good storyline the same as boys do, so I am not that surprised.

4) Are you enjoying your visit here at Bzpower?
Yes, I enjoy my time on BZPower a lot.

5) Will there be sets for Graalok, Takanuva and Hewkii?(and the others in MoL)
I don't think there is a set of Graalok planned. Probably will be for the others you mentioned.

6)" No, Graalok does not talk -- he growls. He's a Rahi bear" Rahi bear? About how big is he? And if he growls, why do they need a voice for him?
Why do they need a voice? Well, someone has to do the growling... and I have only seen concept sketches, so I am not sure how big he is relation to the other characters.

7)Question: for the next series of bionicle comics: will the same artist be doing these comics?
Actually, there is a change in the artists beginning in January. Carlos d'Anda is moving on to other projects, so Randy Elliott, the inker, will be taking over pencilling chores.

8) how long does it usually take to come up with story elements for the toys?
The story team works way ahead of time on the story.. we are in the process of putting together 2004's story now and getting it concept tested.

9)Were the tohunga once much more powerful than they are now? Someone had to have made the tunnels of Mangaia and the Exo-Toa.
No, I don't believe the Matoran were ever more powerful than they are now. And who says they made those tunnels?

10)Makuta is coming back, right? As he was before, or in a new form? Will he maybe partner the bahrag, and they work together?
No, you have not seen the last of Makuta .. and no, he will not be teaming with the Bahrag.

11) It seems that every chapter is similiar. In the beginning, the toa had to find the kanohi to unlock a secret passageway to Makuta's lair. For the swarms, they had to collect the krana to unlock a secret passageway to the exo-toa and the bahrag. This time they have to find the kanohi nuva. Will they unlock a secret passageway?
No secret passageways that I know of .. and as for the stories being similar, I hear you.. but basically, they are meant to be a big neon arrow pointing the Toa Nuva underground, because that is where the answers to a lot of mysteries lie on Mata Nui.

12)Will the toa nuva's greatest challenge be overcoming their enemies, or their differences? Because you said they are starting to have them, and that comic 9's title is "Divided We Fall".
Both.

13)Do you know why Lego Released two Bohrok mini-comics. The very well written one: Swarm and the one with no Writing whatsoever: Bohrok?
The reason for releasing text-less in-box comics is that BIONICLE products are sold all over the world. It is much faster and easier to produce the in-box comics and pack them, etc., if you don't have to worry about getting them translated into multiple languages. So we did the one with text first, and then decided to switch over to a text-less version to make things easier for everyone involved.

14) Will the exo-toa's and the bahrag's alternative modes ever be in the storyline?
No, I don't think there are plans for those to show up in the comic, anyway.
