Dynamite Brings Red Sonja, John Carter, and Tarzan To Pathfinder In Worldscape #1

The Pathfinder universe is about to get a visit from some notable names of fantasy storytelling.

Paizo and Dynamite have teamed up for Pathfinder: Worldscape, a series that pairs the heroes of Pathfinder with icons like Red Sonja, John Carter of Mars, and Tarzan. The book will be helmed by writer Erik Mona (Pathfinder: Hollow Mountain) and artist Jonathan Lau (Red Sonja and Cub).

"I've put an enormous amount of time, creative attention, and energy into creating a storyline and game rules worthy of these great characters," says author Erik Mona. "I'm ecstatic to see Pathfinder Worldscape come to life and I hope Pathfinder and comic fans everywhere love it as much as I do."

The book begins when the heroes of Pathfinder are transported to the Worldscape, a mysterious place that holds warriors from Hyboria, Barsoon, Golarion, and Earth. It is on this battlefield that Pathfinder's champions will encounter Red Sonja, Tarzan, and John Carter of Mars.

In addition to the storyline, each issue will include official game statistics for each character, and #1 will include Red Sonja's along with a new archetype called the Sword-Devil modeled after her. The books will also include new rules and races for use in Pathfinder roleplaying games, and a miniatures-scale poster map based on the storyline.

Pathfinder Worldscape #1 is in comic shops today, and you can view the issue's cover in the gallery.
