Titan Books has obtained the rights from DC Comics to publish a graphical novel set in Azeroth in the UK and Ireland.


The book is written by Walt Simonson, who penned comics Elric and Orion if that means anything to you.

The story follows a human who is washed up on the shores of Kalimdor and is enslaved by orc shaman Rehgar Earthfury. Fingers crossed it will take a few liberties with the licence, as the idea of a comic book about level-grinding fills us with dread.

The book will be released on September 26 in a 'stylish and collectable' hardcore volume, priced £16.99. There you go.

    Haha, yeah I've never played the game just seen it been played and it looks pretty fabulous I just don't want to get caught up in the WoW addiction.

    well, at least it'll get the WoW players away from their computers for a little while. I wonder will the book go on release, and when they find out that everyone's finished it too quickly, they'll just release an extra 20%?

    Can't wait.
