As we learned late last month, the Dishonored series is expanding beyond the world of video games with an all-new comic series and a trilogy of novels set in a world where dark magic and steampunk technology co-exist, and today we have a look at a few pages from Issue #1 of the comic plus all four covers.

The comic series from Titan, which kicks off in August (just in time for the launch of the highly anticipated Dishonored II video game later in the year), is written by Gordon Rennie (2000 AD, Doctor Who) and illustrated by Andrea Olimpieri and Marcelo Maiolo, whose art credits include Batman Beyond and Old Man Logan.

This hotly anticipated comic series comes with four covers to collect: three art covers by artists Fabio Listrani, Andrea Olimpieri, and Charles Bae and a game cover.

Below you’ll find a four-page lettered preview, all the covers, and the issue’s synopsis.

Synopsis:
The city of Dunwall: whaling capital of Gristol and industrial hub of the Empire of the Isles. Twelve years have passed since Corvo Attano scuppered the Lord Regent’s duplicitous plot against the crown and cleared his name of the Empress Jessamine’s murder. Now a little older and perhaps a little wiser, Corvo sets his sights on the future and securing an apprentice to continue his legacy. But when confronted by an impossible face from his past, the magically-gifted assassin finds himself once again drawn into a supernatural conspiracy, one that threatens to shake the very foundations of his ancient city!

Dishonored Issue #1 will be released on August 3rd.
