Namco Bandai will release a free online comic book based on its upcoming Dark Souls II.

The graphic novel will also be packaged as a physical comic book that will be packaged in certain limited editions of the game. While little is known about the story other than the fact that it's set in the universe of Dark Souls 2, it is being created by veteran comic writers Rob Williams (Judge Dredd, Star Wars Tales) and Andi Ewington (45) and artist Simon Coleby (Judge Dredd, Rogue Trooper).
