If you're itching for a good
World of Warcraft story and
patch 5.3 is too long to wait for new story content, Blizzard is happy to oblige with the just-released
World of Warcraft: Dark Riders graphic novel. Unfortunately, Blizzard's own description of the comic -- talking about an "enigmatic destiny" and "hidden dangers" -- is too vague and generic to grab our interest. But fortunately we've
heard about Dark Riders before and expect good things from writer Mike Costa and artist Neil Googe. So what can you expect to find in this tome of lore? More about the mysterious
Dark Riders of Deadwind Pass, who have only been alluded to in the game, the secretive
wolf cult, and the
Scythe of Elune. But if you're not a lore hound, you'll just have to be tempted by the promise of a good
World of Warcraft story in graphic novel form.
World of Warcraft: Dark Riders is available today. You can take
a sneak peak at the art or buy it directly form
Amazon or
Barnes & Noble for $16.01 -- though if you prefer digital, it's $12.99 for Kindle and $13.74 for Nook.
