Apuleius here, with scans from Animorphs: The Graphic Novel: The Invasion. It's a 237 page adaptation of the original novel. I've never read the book and I'm outside its target audience, but this comic looks like a high-quality production. It's lovingly drawn and the transformations are far more appealing the CGI ones from the old TV show.
In the first scans, Tobias tells his friend Jake that he has morphed into his pet cat Dude. Jake is skeptical, so Tobias demonstrates a transformation and reversion:
Jake is inspired by this and attempts morphing into his pet dog Homer. He succeeds!
Further on, Jake and his friend Marco are visited by a hawk that is really Tobias:
The kids are pursued by evil aliens, so Marco and Jake sneak into a zoo to touch a gorilla and tiger. They succeed and then get the hell out of there. The scans after this skip to the the book's climax, when Marco and Jake transform into a gorilla and tiger to fight the nasty aliens:
This artist was competing for being the artist on this book but didn't get the job. He posted his sample art on his website though. http://www.megan-brennan.com/animorphs
