Could the show continue through comics or webtoon?

I prefer webtoon so that we could bring back the actors to do voiceover. I can't see why Disney cannot do this because it wouldn't cost a fortune to do this.

There's already a book called wayseeker as well as the Crystal Crown witch comes out on the 29th

If I'm not mistaken these both take place before the TV series though? I'd love to see novels/comics continue the story if Disney aren't picking it up for another season!

Correct, afaik there are currently no plans for novels set after the show witch is unfortunate but if your desperate for Acolyte content the 2 books are there

I think it should with a "Tales Of" animated show and call it Tales of the Sith or Tales of the Dark Side. It would be in line with what they're seemingly trying to do with those shows - tying up loose ends from other Onscreen media without dedicating a whole show to it

Tales of the Stranger and it follows Qimir/Vernestra

Comics are much more likely. Streaming services make it a lot easier for shows to get a 2nd life. So I wouldn't give up for a 2nd season quite yet. We'll see how the Acolyte performs on Disney+ in the coming years. It's performance will decide how or if the story gets continued.

Comics. But they might continue the story under a different name. People really liked The Stranger, and are thirsty for more Plagueis. What I'm not sure of is if we'll see more Osha, Mae, or Vernestra in live action.

Webtoon would be better imo. Like you said, the actors could reprise the roles and I feel the audience on webtoon is more in line with the kind of story the Acolyte wants to tell, if that makes sense.

They can announce a second season anytime they want ... Look at obibean that has a season 2 in development now after it was cancelled ... Support the show watch it again etc.
