Comic book series based on Prototype announced
Comic series to bridge the ending of the original game and the sequel
Radical Entertainment and Dark Horse Comics have joined forces to create a new comic series set in the Prototype universe.
Launching February 15, 2012, the digital comic series will be broken into three original stories that bridge the gap between the original game and the sequel Prototype 2.
The first entry, "The Anchor," illustrated by Paco Díaz, continues the story of Alex Mercer, the protagonist from the first game, while the second story, "The Survivors," illustrated by Chris Staggs, follows a small group of residents of New York trying to escape the city after it has been transformed into NYZ with the outbreak of the Blacklight virus. The third and final story, illustrated by Victor Drujiniu, is "The Labyrinth" and provides fans a deeper look into the backstory of Prototype 2's new protagonist, Sgt. James Heller.
"We're always looking for meaningful ways to expand the Prototype universe, and Dark Horse Comics is an industry-leading creative powerhouse delivering best-in-class graphic storytelling that integrates deeply to the core of our IP," said Ken Rosman, Studio Head, Radical Entertainment.
Prototype 2 is currently in development for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Windows PC, with a release date currently set for April 24, 2012.
