Dynamite’s Pathfinder comics get collected in an Omnibus collecting three story arcs

Dynamite Entertainment has announced a new extra-sized epic tome compiling several sizzling sagas of Paizo‘s Pathfinder characters and mythos for an omnibus volume perfect for fans to binge read! Across a whopping 560 pages, this capacious compendium packs together three core story arcs from the nearly 15 fabulous years of comics featuring the hit tabletop roleplaying experience from Dynamite.

Pathfinder comic book adventures all started In Dark Water Risingdriven by fan-favorite writer Jim Zub known for his fantasy fables and RPG inspired epics like Conan the Barbarian, Skullkickers, Wayward, and a deep bibliography with Marvel Comics. The warrior Valeros can rely on his sword arm and his friends, including the mysterious sorceress Seoni, the quick-witted elven rogue Merisiel, the powerful wizard Ezren, the well-traveled dwarven ranger Harsk, and the courageous cleric Kyra. Though nothing can prepare this band of adventurers for the dangers that lurk ahead. The scattered goblin tribes of Varisia are unifying in ways no one has ever seen before.

Then in its follow up Tooth and ClawValeros and his companions are tasked with tracking down a mysterious beast scaring the locals of Sandpoint. They find more than they bargained for, as a simple monster hunt unfolds into a twisted tale of danger and betrayal when the Cult of Lamashtu seeks to exact its revenge on our iconic heroes! Zub is complemented in these two story arcs and their extras by artists including Andrew Huerta.

The initial flagship series is all collected here, but it’s topped off with the anthology series Goblins which turns the spotlight to the iconic pint-sized psychopaths, as they wreak havoc across the land. Infamous for their unpredictable attacks, catchy raiding songs, hatred of dogs, and fear of horses, the iconic goblins of Pathfinder blend mischief and murderous mayhem like no other monsters. A range of creators contribute including Charles Soule, Ron Marz, Adam Warren, Erik Mona, F. Wesley Schneider, James L. Sutter, Crystal Frasier, Ray Fawkes, Carlos Gomez, Sean Izaakse, Craig Rousseau, Jeremy Holt, Eric Trautmann, Paul Allor, and more.

The Pathfinder Omnibus includes Pathfinder (2012) #1-12, the 2014 special, Pathfinder: Goblins #1-5, and a range of bonus materials including a short story and lots of RPG materials that fans can bring directly to the game night.

Starfinder: Angels of the Drift #1

Paizo’s Starfinder Makes Its Epic Comics Debut!

Following the announcement and upcoming release of Dynamite‘s next hotly anticipated Pathfinder series, the first in several years, the publisher is announcing another huge collaboration with roleplaying industry leader Paizo. Starfinder, the tabletop innovator’s other smash hit game and mythos, is coming to comic books for the first time in Angels of the Drift!

For the first ever Starfinder comic series coming to stores, Dynamite and Paizo hand picked the best creative voice to take the helm. James L. Sutter served on staff at Paizo for over a decade, including as Creative Director for Starfinder, playing a critical role in developing the world and systems, translating the beloved Pathfinder formula to a science-fantasy landscape. Sutter writes Angels of the Drift alongside artist Edu Menna.

Paizo has been charting the paths of Starfinder’s “iconics” for over half a decade now in game art and supplemental material, but fans have been clamoring for a greater story focus on them, which is now here! Angels of the Drift is elevated by its fun, colorful cast of characters, like any great genre adventure. Navasi is a human woman and reformed pirate, serving as the group’s fast-talking, plan-crafting de facto captain. The hulking, reptilian Obozaya is the main muscle. Ciravel is a precog elf who uses a hoverchair. The hot headed mechanic Quig comes along with a pet robot, and a deadly flamethrower. Last but certainly not least is Keskodai, an insectoid medic… and priest of a death goddess. This squad will all be pulled together as a disaster in the hyperspace dimension known as the Drift has completely thrown off the galaxy’s ability to travel between worlds safely. It all goes south from there!

The series will feature a stunning trio of fantastic covers. Series interior artist Edu Menna is included in the pack, alongside Richard Pace and Biagio d’Alessandro. Pace’s covers across the series will connect to form a larger image. All covers are all printed on premium cardstock paper.

Each issue also comes with extra content for players of the tabletop game: the full series will include playable character stats for all the heroes, new character options inspired by the comic, a brand new playable species, and more—all officially sanctioned by the Starfinder Society!

Dynamite’s Starfinder: Angels of the Drift series will alternate publication months with Pathfinder: Wake the Dead through the remainder of 2023, giving Paizo fans a great chance to follow both series and their connected mythos. The first issue of Starfinder: Angels of the Drift debuts in June 2023.
