The cover art for Worlds of D&D #7 are starting to show up online.
Here's a link to the best version I've seen online.
The "Click to enlarge" button brings up a clear, bright image. Since there are two stories in each issue, issues are printed with alternate covers. The second cover is shown in the lower left corner.
There are a couple of errors on this site. First, "The Great Hunt" will be in issue #7, not #8 as listed here. Second, I wrote the adaptation (with a great deal of guidance and feedback from Jim Lowder). Dale Donovan, who is listed in the credits, had to drop out of the project very early on. Finally, the release date listed in November 26. This may be correct, but the latest and most reliable information I've heard suggests it'll be out in early December.
I had a great time revisiting Arilyn and Elaith. Hope you enjoy the adaptation as much as I did. 
Mod Edit: Fixed the page-stretching URL.

| Wonderful, can't wait to read this one. |

| its a good comic. The 1st three issues or so have been put into a trade by the way |

-That's too bad, then. Though I don't have any of the issues (I recall having Storm's ass pointed out to me in one issue by someone, however  ), that means that there won't be any future issues that I might want. No offense to the artists and authors of the stories that were featured, of course. |

like I said, I had the first 2 issues and liked them. |

Ah, memories.
Yeah, this is rather sad news. I wanted more Elminster. |

James Lowder did confirm on another thread that issue 8 is indeed the last
too bad |

You say that like it's a bad thing. |

*casts revive scroll*
Well I just picked up Worlds of D&D issue 7 at my local Comic book store. Strangely enough, I think I would have liked to have read this story in prose rather than in a graphic format. The art was pretty, although I'd expected an elf that looked like the depiction in the 3e FRCG for Elaith... I suppose my main complaint is that I wish it were longer
