Hot off the release of Overwatch’s newest hero, Blizzard is gracing fans with yet more good news. Blizzard will be teaming up with Dark Horse comics to produce a new set of comics set in the Overwatch universe.

The digital comics previously released by Blizzard, such as the Ana one available here are already being made available through the Dark Horse digital platform. However, the company has announced plans for further stories. Dark Horse have promised that fans can expect a 100-page hardcover graphic novel to come out in April 2017, detailing the exploits of the original Overwatch strike team. Also coming in 2017 is a book of never before seen concept art called The Art of Overwatch.

Future Dark Horse comics will be released telling more stories of Overwatch characters. As a teaser, Dark Horse also released a concept cover image, seen below.

While not all players might appreciate their characters backstory, it can make in game interactions more interesting. For example, knowing that Widowmaker is the one who took Ana’s eye gives you a great reason to hunt down the enemy sniper each round.
