Legendary Comic Book Released

In anticipation of the game’s release later this month, developer Spark Unlimited announced the release of a 96-page graphic novel for Legendary: The Box. It has been written by comic book veteran, Mark Waid, and penciled by Top Cow Production artist Martin Montiel.

The graphic novel is expected to offer insight into the game’s protagonist Charles Deckard, an art thief who somehow gets the Pandora’s Box and unleashes all the evil stored inside.

“Our primary focus at Spark is all about making Legendary an epic gameplay experience,” said Craig Allen, CEO of Spark Unlimited. “However, there was a lot more of the story we wanted to tell and so we reached out to Mark Waid and invited him to create a unique expression of Legendary’s characters and narrative as a graphic novel.”

The comic book is now available for $14.99, with the game due out on PS3 and Xbox 360 on November 18; the PC version is expected later.
