From Paul Tobin, the Eisner Award winning writer of Bandette, with art by Joe Querio
(Lobster Johnson, B.P.R.D.) and covers by Dave Johnson (100 Bullets), comes a
riveting comic based on The Witcher, a series of dark fantasy RPGs with a
character-driven, non-linear story set in a gritty and living world.  
Inspired by a series of extremely popular novels translated into 19 languages, the
comic series introduces a new adventure featuring Geralt of Rivia - a witcher, one
of the few remaining monster hunters known from the hit video game franchise. 

We're very happy to be working with Dark Horse Comics, which is one of the biggest
and most interesting comic book publishing houses in the world. What makes it even
more exciting is the fact that, for many of us, the Dark Horse logo has near
legendary status, standing for classic characters such as Hellboy or Usagi Yojimbo.
We're very happy to be once again expanding The Witcher universe, said Adam
Badowski, Head of Studio, CD Projekt RED.

Travelling near the edge of the Black Forest, in the land of the Angren, monster
hunter Geralt meets a widowed man whose dead and murderous wife resides in an eerie
mansion known as the House of Glass. With its endless rooms and horror around every
corner, Geralt will have to use all his witcher prowess to solve the manor’s mystery
and survive.

We're very excited to work with CD Projekt RED on The Witcher. With the rich world
they have created, and an enthralling central character like Geralt, we feel The
Witcher is ripe to tell a compelling story through comics, said Nick McWhorter,
Director of Custom Programs, Dark Horse Comics.

With two games already available, fans can get to know Geralt even before the
release of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt in 2014 on PC, PlayStation®4 and Xbox One®, the
all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft. The Witcher games were
collectively granted over 270 awards and sold more than 5 million copies worldwide.

Witcher #1 will be available for purchase March 19th, 2014 in comic shops
