IDW Publishing has announced that Dungeons & Dragons will be returning to comics this April with more adventures starring the Baldur’s Gate heroes from series past with Dungeons & Dragons: Evil at Baldur’s Gate, which will be penned by Jim Zub (Samurai Jack) with stable of artists including Dean Kotz (Charmed Season 9), Steven Cummings (Wayward), Harvey Tolibao (Green Arrow), Ramon Bachs (X-Men) and Francesco Mortarino (Jupiter’s Circle) and covers from Max Dunbar (Gears of War).
“Dungeons & Dragons sparked a lifelong desire to create stories in me that’s never really gone away,” said writer Zub. “Dungeons & Dragons is all about exploration and engaging the unknown that lurks around every corner. I love the feeling of exploration that sword & sorcery stories provide. Evil At Baldur’s Gate is our fourth D&D mini-series with this cast and is a great way to jump on board and join in the adventure!”
The Baldur’s Gate heroes return to the city at last, but their time adventuring in Ravenloft and the frozen northern reaches of the Realms has changed them. Each of them must face great trials ahead before they’ll be ready to embrace their destiny. Minsc, Krydle & Shandie, Delina, Nerys Kathon, and Boo will all take center stage throughout this series. While it does continue Zub’s run on D&D, each story is self-contained and so fans can jump on board anywhere and introduce themselves to this beloved cast of characters.
Dungeons & Dragons: Evil at Baldur’s Gate is set to launch in April.
