Warner Montreal has said it’s working on bringing new DC Comics-based games to the market due thanks to the popularity of Rocksteady’s Batman series, and the bang-up job the studio did with the two titles.

The comic is illustrated by Diego Latorre (The Incredible Hulk) and written by Christos Gage (X-Men/Spider-Man, Wildcats), so the prestige is there for it not to be crap.

However, if you’re going to ComicCon this week, you can pick up a special issue #0, and get it signed by the above.

Poor Tai Kaliso. He was easily a favorite of ours and we hated the way things went down for him in Gears of War 2.

To make up for it though, DC Comics and Wildstorm provide a backstory to the “proud warrior with a gentle heart” in the upcoming Gears of War No.7.

This special issue was illustrated by Simon Bisley and written by Joshua Ortega and Henry Flint.

It goes on sale May 20, and Kotaku has a nice preview of it posted on the site.

Joystiq is reporting that thesix part graphic mini-series based on Radical’s open worlder is coming in April.

The comics were first announced in April last year and are to written by Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray (Jonah Hex), with illustrations by Darick Robertson (Transmetropolitan).

The comics will be published be under DC’s Wildstorm label.

DC being true to form, each issue will have a variant cover by mega-artist Jim Lee, meaning you’ll most likely want to be 12 copies instead of six.

Prototype is out later this year.
