IDW Publishing has begun a license with WOTC to produce a Dungeons and Dragons comic book series based on the latest (4th) edition of the classic RPG. The series is titled “Dungeons & Dragons” and involves the adventures of a group of characters representative of the major races and classes from the game. I’ve seen a number of “D&D comics” come and go but I have to say that I never enjoyed any of them as much as I’m enjoying this one. “Dungeons & Dragons is quick, witty and reminiscent to me of watching an episode of the TV show “Firefly”. These days I only have a few comic titles that I buy on a regular basis; “Dungeons & Dragons” has made the cut. It’s been four fun issues staring with issue #0. I’m actually excited to see a new issue, and I haven’t been excited like that since the early issues of “Knights of the Dinner Table”.
I'll have to check this one out soon.
ReplyDelete've read the first two issues of this comic and despite a few cliches I highly recommend it. The art is very good and the writer doesn't write down to the genre but develops the characters while maintaining a very high pace.
