In order to get to know the characters of Dead Space a little bit better Visceral Games decided to team up with Titan Books and create a graphic novel called Dead Space Liberation. The comic is a prequel to Dead Space 3 and is written by Ian Edgington and Christopher Shy.
Here’s the official description:
“A prequel to the events of the smash video game hit Dead Space 3, we follow Earthgov Sergeant, John Carver whose wife and son are attacked by fanatics trying to liberate the Marker site where she works. Racing to solve the clues his wife left behind, Carver teams up with Ellie Langford, survivor of an earlier necromorph outbreak on the Sprawl, and EarthGov Captain Robert Norton. Together they unlock deep secrets about the Markers in an epic adventure that will help determine the fate of mankind.”
The paperback graphic novel will be released on February 5th, 2013 and set you back $17.99.
Titan Books will also give out The Art of Dead Space which will feature 300 artwork from Dead Space 3.
