Posted - 13 Feb 2007 : 03:11:36 Checking at my local comic store (where I also buy my D&D books), I found a comic rack filled with the old Forgotten Realms comic series-- issues #1-14 and the Annual. And with the low price of $1.00 Canadian per issue, I feel as though it's a steal!!
To those who have read and/or own the issues, is it worth it? |

Posted - 07 Aug 2008 : 07:12:16 I picked up issue 2 of WoD&D last week. I was expecting not to like it, but I really did. I'm really looking forward to Elminster at the Magefair btw.

The first trade should be out before too long. I'm writing a foreword for it. As soon as we have an ETA for publication, I'll let the board know. The third issue, which has the first half of Jeff Grubb's adaptation of "Elminster at the Magefair," should be off to the printer pretty quickly, too.
Cheers, Jim
Thanks for the info Jim and good luck with this |

The first issue sold well. The second issue is at the printer and should be ready soon. After that, the issues should be coming out more regularly (meaning the trades will, too).

Nice pictures.
I liked that myself and the art looks quite good. Hopefully it'll remain good. |

Agreed! I can't wait to get my hands on these. I am really excited about the Cale story as well. I've been impressed with the art in these DDP comics so far. |
