World of Warcraft Comic Book series revealed, the adventure starts on November 14th, 2007

DC Comics has revealed a World of Warcraft Comic Book based on Blizzard’s insanely popular MMORPG. The official release date for the first issue is November 14th, 2007. A WOW comic subscription for 12 issues is $23.99. Preview art from the series will debut at Comic-Con International, held in San Diego, CA from July 26–29.

The ongoing monthly series will be written by industry veteran Walter Simonson (Thor, Orion) and feature art by Ludo Lullabi and inker Sandra Hope. The first six issues of the World of Warcraft comic series will each feature two covers, one by superstar comic book artist Jim Lee and a second by Blizzard Entertainment Senior Art Director Samwise Didier.

The first storyline of the new ongoing series begins when a human is found unconscious on the shores of Kalimdor, with no memory of who he is or how he arrived there. Enslaved by an orc shaman, the man must fight for survival against members of both the Alliance and the Horde. He strikes uneasy relationships with other races in his quest to find the secrets of his past.

The Warcraft series has been a pillar of gaming culture for over a decade, with multiple #1-selling titles. Blizzard’s World of Warcraft MMORPG allows thousands of players to explore the rich, war-torn setting of the franchise together, and has attracted more than 8.5 million subscribers worldwide. The Burning Crusade, the first expansion to World of Warcraft, recently shattered PC game sales records by selling more than 2.4 million copies in its first 24 hours of release and approximately 3.5 million in its first month. — Thanks for the Blizzplanet tip Wowfan.
