Horizon Zero Dawn–Comic book series spins out of the video game

As Guerrilla’s PlayStation 4 action game Horizon Zero Dawn: The Complete Edition arrives on the Steam gaming platform today, a new comic series begins, expanding on the storyline.  In Titan Comics’ monthly series Horizon Zero Dawn, a hunter heroine named Aloy adventures across a post-apocalyptic land dominated by magnificent, robotic creatures.  Aloy joins another hunter heroine, the noble Talanah, after the events of the game, as humanity fights for survival on a new earth.  Co-created by one of the writers of the Horizon Zero Dawn game, the comic catches up with Aloy as she meets a new breed of mechanized killers.  Check out a preview of the first issue of the series below.

 

Anne Toole is the co-creator writing the series, with interior artwork by Ann Maulina, and a full array of covers by artists Stanley “Artgerm” Lau, Peach Momoko, and more.

The story and look evoke Hayao Miyazaki’s Princess Mononoke and maybe a little Mechagodzilla.
