Dark Horse gave us your exclusive first look at the new series and what it has to offer fans of the glorious RPG franchise. With The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt writer Aleksandra Motyka at the helm and art done by the talented Marianna Strychowska, the new comic mini-series is guaranteed to be the perfect addition to the lore so many fell in love with.
We’ve got our first look at the full cover in the stunning artwork above. As far as the ominous set up goes, Dark Horse told us a little more about what we can expect from the new series:
“Geralt is summoned by an old friend to help solve a mystery involving his daughter. Upon his arrival, Geralt is surprised by another friend from the past and he soon finds himself transported to regions beyond his original expectations.”
