Comics and video games tend to go hand in hand. Like chocolate and peanut butter. Or Selina Kyle and leather. What better way to fill this week's void in new comic releases than a video game adaptation of a comic? See the connection?
Chris Giarusso is bringing
G-Man: Cape Crisis to computers. "Escape from Dark Forest" adapts the chase scene from
G-Man: Cape Crisis #4 where G-Man must stay one step ahead of forest monsters that want to eat him. After you've had your fill of the game, Giarusso would be ecstatic if you would head down to your local comic store and
G-Man: Cape Crisis #5 on January 13. No, you don't have to go immediately and sit in line for two weeks, as I'm sure Giarusso would be just as happy if you went on the 13th.
"I'm very happy to see that comics and gaming fans have been enjoying the classic 8-bit style G-Man video games we've been adding to chrisgcomics.com," Giarrusso said. "Long-time gaming fans dig that familiar old-school feel they grew up with, while younger fans are discovering the undeniable charm of these games for the first time. I personally couldn't be more thrilled with the way these games tie directly into aspects of the Cape Crisis comic series."
Full press release after the jump.
