Say what you will about Dragon Age 2 (and there is a lot to say, those repetitious environmentals were rough), it had some incredible character arcs throughout all three chapters. Fenris started out as a least favourite of mine but quickly rose to the top through his character development and now it looks like my beloved broody Tevinter elf is back and bigger than ever in a brand new post-Inquisition adventure with a new Dragon Age comic!
The new comic series is called Dragon Age: Blue Wraith and will see a Fenris set in a time when the hunt for Solas is on. The team behind Dragon Age: Blue Wraith is thankfully similar for those that are familiar with some of the past Dark Horse Dragon Age Comics, featuring writers Nunzio DeFilippis (Dragon Age: Knight Errant, new X-Men) and Christina Weir (Dragon Age: Deception, New X-Men). Artist Fernando Heinz Furukawa (Dragon Age: Knight Errant, God is Dead) is also returning, with the colorist work done by Michael Atiyeh (The Orville: New Beginnings, Halo: Escalation). The comic’s covers will be done by Sachin Teng, with the full cover shown off below courtesy of ComicBook:
According to the description of Dragon Age: Blue Wraith courtesy of Dark Horse:
“Dragon Age: Blue Wraith starts off with the fanatical Qunari seeking to topple the Tevinter mageocracy. Caught in the middle, one powerful young mage’s desperate search for her father brings her face-to-face with a notorious mage hunter—Fenris, the Blue Wraith.”
The new adventure arrives on January 15, 2020 and will feature 3 issues in total. Are you excited? Because I’m excited. Hit me up and geek out with all things Dragon Age with me over on Twitter @DirtyEffinHippy!
