Dead Space Extraction debuts at Comic-Con

EA’s Visceral Games and Image Comics have released an all-new comic based on Dead Space Extraction, the prequel to Dead Space for the Wii. The Dead Space Extraction comic reunites renowned illustrator Ben Templesmith and writer Antony Johnston with the game’s dark and mature fiction. This one-time special issue comic follows the successful partnership for last year’s Dead Space comic mini-series. The comic will be on store shelves in September 2009 for SRP $3. A limited edition version of the comic featuring exclusive cover art will be available for the special price of $2 at the EA Comic-con booth (#5123).

Ben Templesmith and Antony Johnston will be at the booth signing the special issues on Thursday 3-4 PM and Friday - Sunday 1-2 PM. Fans of Dead Space will also be able to purchase other Dead Space merchandise such an Isaac Clarke Unitology figurine, iPhone skins, and Dead Space art books. Players will also have the chance to play the game at the EA booth. The Dead Space Extraction development team is participating in the “Art of Making a Horror Video Game” panel on Friday, July 24th at 6 PM in Room 2.
