Hellgate London #0 (of 4)

(W) Ian Edginton (A) Steve Pugh. Few video games have enjoyed such a frenetic buzz around their release as the upcoming Hellgate: London* and with good reason they haven't had the awesome talent of former Diablo developers and executives working on an inaugural release! Now together as Flagship Studios* these formidable creative minds have developed a groundbreaking game that's guaranteed to become another best-selling franchise. Ian Edginton* the critically acclaimed author of Scarlet Traces and the recent War of the Worlds webcomic adaptation* teams with Superman and Preacher artist Steve Pugh to explore this demon-ravaged metropolis in comics form. Hellgate fans will eat up the realistic flavor that both UK creators bring to the work* and Flagship has had hands-on approval every step of the way. MI5 agent Lyra Darius discovers a human charnel house in the heart of London while tailing Lord Sumerisle* the recently resigned Home Office Minister for Internal Affairs. She's soon entangled in a bloody intrigue with Knights Templar* and everything is building up to All Hallows Eve! * This series leads up to the game's highly anticipated release. * Check out hellgatelondon.com [and darkhorse.com] for the latest news and downloads.
