Warcraft Movie Comic Prequel Available Today

In some parts of the world, the Warcraft movie has been released, but for those of us living in the US, the movie will be dropping this coming Thursday. Reviews have been mixed, although for the most part they seem to be negative, but given Warcraft’s long and storied history and the millions of players that have played the franchise, we reckon they’ll watch it anyway.

That being said, if you are curious about the movie and its background, you might be interested to learn that the movie’s comic prequel is out today. The official release date is set for the 7th of June and it will be a hardcover graphic novel with a story by none other than Blizzard’s very own Chris Metzen which will be written by Paul Cornell.

It will also feature art by Mat Broome, Michael O’Hare, Eddie Nunez, Roy Allan Martinez, Ale Garza, Mike Bowden, and Kevin Tong. The movie itself is roughly based around the story of Orcs and Humans, similar to that of the original Warcraft RTS, so this comic will give moviegoers a bit more backstory in case they are interested in that kind of thing.

Dubbed Warcraft: Bonds of Brotherhood, the graphic novel will set you back $24.99 if you are interested. It is currently available from Amazon so head on over if you’d like to get your hands on it.
