THE WITCHER Meets Japan in Upcoming Manga THE WITCHER: RONIN
Dark Horse Comics and CD Projekt Red are teaming up to bring fans of The Witcher a new take on the beloved universe. The Witcher: Ronin will be a new manga written by Rafał Jaki with art by manga artist Hataya and letters by Aditya Bidikar that combines The Witcher with rich traditions of Japanese folklore. This is definitely going to be interesting. I loved when Peach Momoko did a similar thing with Marvel characters and this could be really awesome. What do you think?
In this world inspired by Edo-period Japan, Geralt is faced with difficult moral choices while battling a variety of yōkai and oni, creatures inspired by Japanese myths. Each encounter drops a clue in his desperate search for a mysterious apparition known as the Lady of Snow, yuki onna, for she is the key to the one Geralt seeks, but finding her won’t be easy...
Fans can read The Witcher: Ronin from comic shops on October 19 and bookstores on November 1. You can read a free excerpt now at Dark Horse.
