Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Now a Dynamite Comic Book!


Licensed Products General Discussion


Wasn't sure where to put this. I thought there'd be a store blog post to dovetail off of, but I didn't see it.

I have a few questions about these upcoming coming books:

1. It says in the email that the comic will be based on the Pathfinder fantasy setting, does that mean all of Golarion? The Inner Sea? Don't know yet?

2. Will the comic book be the type that is a continuing adventure of recurring characters that is released monthly? Bi-monthly? (I ask because I was just discussing with my children the other day the joy of getting comic books in the mail, and I'm wondering if a subscription is a possibility.) Which brings me to my third question...

3. Will the comic books be kid friendly? Or are they going to be rife with adult themes. Not that I particularly care either way. I'm sure if they are adult themed, I'll still be buying them for myself.

Adult content warning:

Spoiler:
I'm fine with the occasional nipple slip out of the bikini-mail, but I sure as heck don't want to try and explain that to my kids, young as they are.

Just want to assess their kid friendliness.

4. Will the material in the comics be based off of already published Pathfinder materials? Either fiction or modules/scenarios/adventure paths? The reason I ask is, if they are based off of modules/scenarios/adventure paths, and will include adventure specific characters or situations, I will more than likely steer my players away from them just to prevent any eventual meta-gaming.

Thanks for any answers anyone can give about these topics.


5. Will they be available for subscription here on Paizo.com?

Thanks Liz. I was pretty sure where I put it was wrong, but I couldn't really figure out where was the best place to put it.

We don't have anything to say yet regarding most of your questions, except for this one:

You can expect that the level of "adult themes" in the comics will be similar to the level in all of our other products.

Good to know. The reason I asked about the "adultness" of the books is that I've seen some pretty racy graphic novels done in fantasy settings, and I wanted to try and assess how that was going to be dealt with. Knowing it will be addressed the same way it always has been, I'll have no problem getting a subscription for my kids. Thanks for getting back to me on what you can answer. I'll keep my ears to the ground on this one.
