Dragon Age comic book #1 coming in March

Dragon Age comic book #1 coming in March

According to IDW Publishing, Dragon Age will be receiving the comic book treatment next year. From March 2010, fans can expect to see monthly issues based on this year's Bioware RPG, set the in grim world of Ferelden. The actual plot behind the series has yet to be fully revealed, though it will be based around rogue mages from the Circle of Magi who "defy the rules of the Templars and change the course of the world forever."

Another note worth taking is on the talent driving the graphic novel. The series will be written by praised novelist Orson Scott Card, with Aaron Johnston (Ender's Game: Mazer in Prison) standing in as his co-writer. The interior art will be worked on by Mark Robinson (Skrull Kill Krew), and "superstar artist" Humberto Ramos will be crafting the covers.

Aside from the upcoming comic book series, further reading can be found in the form of The Stolen Throne, a novel released in March covering the backstory to Dragon Age: Origins (our review).
