The first page of a comic by Jerry Holkins and Mike Krahulik was posted on the official portal. It describes with typical Penny Arcade humor the creation of the world of Ashan, and how the mortal races ended up being bossed around by the higher beings. Three additional pages will follow in the future. Gabe and Tycho are good friends of Ubisoft, having made comics for Brothers in Arms, Rainbow Six, Splinter Cell and Far Cry. It's interesting to see the Might and Magic universe expand to this medium as well.

Speaking of comics, a special edition of Cranky Hero is ready for posting... but you'll have to wait until Monday. Or perhaps Sunday, if you insist.
