Looks like Titan's putting out a series of 4 comics about Dark Souls

>From Software's seminal action-RPG Dark Souls is heading to a new generation of consoles later this year thanks to the forthcoming Remastered edition, but before that, fans will have a chance to delve back into the world of Lordran at bookstores. Titan Comics is publishing a new comic series based on Dark Souls, the first issue of which is slated to debut ahead of the Remastered version this May.

>Titled Dark Souls: The Age of Fire, the comic is a four-issue series that ties directly into the Dark Souls video game and features "all the main characters" from the title. Titan says the story will be a "dramatic retelling of the Legends of Silver Knights." The series is written by Ryan O'Sullivan (whose previous credits include Void Trip, Warhammer) and features art by Anton Kokarev (Assassin's Creed).

>The first issue of Dark Souls: The Age of Fire arrives in physical and digital comic stores on May 16 and costs $4. Ahead of its release, Titan has shared a handful of beautiful variant covers, as well as several pages of interior art from the upcoming comic.

The art at least looks pretty good, but is this a good idea or is it fairly pointless? Are vidya comics ever good? Do you have any recommendations?

Well, there were Dark Soul comics books already, but they were rather boring. I got bored of Dark Souls combat after 5 hours and these memories might have influenced enjoyment of the book.

Art for this is decent, although 3rd page in your posts looks like heavily processed images of 3d models.

>Do you have any recommendations?

Witcher comic books are surprisingly good. It's nothing crazy, but they they are much better than the majority of other licensed books. When it comes to mood in them, they are a middle ground between games and the original short story, but leaning more towards the games.

I have also heard good things about recent Street Fighter comics, especially Reloaded and vs Darkstalkers, but haven't read them yet.

Already off to a rough start. Surely it can't be worse than the last comic run. Right?

First two Witcher comics are okay. The third one is garbage.

Judging from this and the animated short that was made to promote DS3, I'd guess that Bamco doesn't actually bother to fill in writers/artists with any details other than screenshots and a basic outline. It's too bad, since a game following some random schmucks leading up to one of the games could be really cool even if it would essentially be discount Berserk
