Media Release -- Titan Comics is thrilled to announce the Official Dark Souls comic - set in the world of the best-selling BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment /FromSoftware video-game series.
The critically acclaimed action role-playing video game was originally released in Japan in 2011 and has now sold over 2.5 million copies worldwide. Dark Souls II: Scholar of the Sin followed in April 2015 and the highly anticipated third game in the series is released worldwide April 2016.
The forthcoming comic series is penned by best-selling writer George Mann (Doctor Who: The Eighth Doctor, Newbury and Hobbes Investigations) and illustrated by Alan Quah (Orphan Black, Godzilla: Awakening).
"I'm 'dead' excited to be working on this new series (see what I did, there). Dark Souls has a rich, original universe that's just begging to be explored in comics, and I'm honoured to have the opportunity to delve in and tell some new stories within it. I've been a fan of the games for some time, so it's a real thrill to be able to contribute to the mythology of the Hollows and their world." – George Mann.
Dark Souls #1 hits comic stores on April 6, 2016 and comes with five covers to collect including a game cover, concept cover, two art covers by Joshua Cassara and Marco Turini and a blank sketch variant.
