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.
Legendary Delayed Once More
The oft-delayed mythological shooter Legendary: The Box has been delayed once more, as Eurogamer reports that the Xbox 360 version is now expected on October 31, a delay from the game’s planned September release.
The site also notes that the release of PC and PS3 versions is delayed further still, as it is no longer certain when either of these versions will be released.
