Sobre Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Sun:
En Athas, cada día es el fin del mundo. En medio de un yermo árido y corrompido por la magia psiónica, supervivientes implacables pelean por las sobras a la sombra de los reyes hechiceros.
La generosidad puede costarte la vida en un lugar así. Pero eso no impedirá que Tikat, un letal gladiador thri-kreen, luche por aquellos a quienes ama. Por ello, cuando Wik —amigo de Tikat— se convierte en el objetivo de un poderoso enemigo psiónico, Tikat se ofrece voluntario para actuar como su guardaespaldas.
Lo que sigue es una brutal batalla por la supervivencia en la que Tikat, su compañera caníbal Kavora y el resto de los reticentes miembros de su grupo luchan por escapar de la ciudad de Tyr. Mientras el equipo se abre paso a través de hordas de esbirros sanguinarios, también tratan de descubrir la identidad de su enemigo sin rostro. ¿Lograrán Tikat y sus compañeros desenmascarar a su verdadero adversario antes de ser masacrados por los siervos esclavizados?

About Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Sun: On Athas, every day is the end of the world. Amidst an arid wasteland defiled by psionic magic, callous survivors fight for scraps in the shadows of sorcerer kings.
Generosity can get you killed in a place like this. But that won’t stop Tikat, a lethal Thri-kreen gladiator, from fighting for the ones he loves. So, when Tikat’s friend Wik is targeted by a powerful psionic enemy, Tikat volunteers himself as bodyguard.
What follows is a brutal battle for survival as Tikat, his cannibal companion Kavora, and the rest of their reluctant party members fight to escape the city of Tyr. As the team rends their way through hordes of bloodthirsty minions, they also hunt for the identity of their faceless enemy. Can Tikat and his comrades unmask their true foe before being butchered by thrall?

Praise for Dungeons & Dragons: The Fallbacks and Dungeons & Dragons: Total Party Killers:
“Dungeons & Dragons: The Fallbacks #1 is both a solid introduction to the world of D&D and an adventure that's laced with plenty of humor.”—AIPT Comics
“It’s a genuinely enjoyable, action-packed issue that hits the ground running and doesn’t stop until it absolutely has to, striking a similar action-comedy vibe to the DUNGEONS & DRAGONS movie, Honor Among Thieves.”—Midlife Gamer Geek
“Dungeons & Dragons: The Fallbacks #1 is an entertaining start as the classic property finds a new comic publisher with Dark Horse . . .. It’s a casual adventure that is welcoming to all who want to join the party.”—Graphic Policy
“Dungeons & Dragons: Total Party Killers is a ton of fun for longtime fans of D&D and anyone looking for a good story. Hastings’s great characters, pacing, and story, combined with Medri’s artwork and Jackson’s colors, make this comic a joy to read”—G33k HQ
“Dungeon and Dragons: Total Party Killers #1 takes a little bit of time to show the type of book it’s going to be moving forward, but ends up being a fun little fantasy anti-hero diversion to ponderous sagas and blockbusters. Hastings and Medri’s book is quirky in the best way.”—Graphic Policy |
