The Humble Gamer Comics Bundle isn’t what you were thinking

Comics

So many awesome comics have been made into games. Batman Arkham Asylum is based on an incredible comic, there’s the Walking Dead games and even Alien vs Predator. You might like to read some of those comics and see where those inspirations came from. Instead, the Humble Bundle is letting you buy comics that went the other way around – these are comics inspired by video games.

Over in the Humble Book Bundle, you can grab a whole bunch of comic books about Fallout, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Remember Me and even… Plants vs Zombies? It’s all a bit weird to me, but here’s what you can get if you pay $5 more than the average price and grab the full bundle:

  • Fallout: New Vegas – All Roads
  • Plants vs Zombies: Lawnmageddon
  • EVE: True Stories
  • Tomb Raider: The Beginning
  • The Art of Remember Me
  • The Guild Volume 1
  • Halo: Initiation
  • The Art of Bioshock Infinite
  • Valve Presents Vol 1: The Sacrifice and Other Steam-Powered Stories
  • Mass Effect: Foundation Volume 1
  • Dragon Age Volume 1: The Silent Grove

There are some pretty hefty names behind some of these titles, including Rhianna Pratchett and David Gaider. So, if you’re interested these games and want to delve a bit more into the lore, or just be able to stare at the pretty pictures without risking in-game death, you might want to check out the bundle.

The charity for this bundle is the Comic Book Legal Defense. These are important guys. If you ever plan to travel and happen to get in trouble for having some questionable comics in your iPad collection, these are the lawyers who will defend your rights to read them. Yeah, good guys to throw money at now and then.

          Showing off all the time he’s been spending in the gym, auditioning for the Olympic hammer-throw team, possibilities are endless. 😉

    Not a huge fan of eBooks but I think I’ll pick this up. Especially for the artbooks, they’re damn expensive in ‘real life’.

      I bought The Art of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe for R500. Still don’t regret it.

        Yeah. Nothing comes close to actually holding a heavy book in your hands.
