The latest news posted to the Shroud of the Avatar website announces the release of a new comic book, set in the Shroud of the Avatar universe:

We are excited to announce the availability of the first officially licensed SotA comic from Tortoise & Hare Creations, Shroud of the Avatar: New Beginnings!

Created by W.O. Billman II (plot, script, and editing) and Indi Martin (pencils, inks, colors, and lettering), New Beginnings tells the story of a corrupt land, where a young farmer and his wife find themselves embroiled in a lethal powerplay with local constables, and seek a fabled escape to a legendary world.

New Beginnings is available now in both print and digital copies, including signed print copies:

• Unsigned Print on Demand & Digital Copies: http://www.indyplanet.com/?product=122157
• Signed Print Copies: https://www.etsy.com/shop/TortoiseHareCreate

The Etsy link is to the Tortoise & Hare Creations storefront; if you want to order the New Beginnings comic specifically, you’ll want to click here instead.

Tortoise & Hare are also the ones who made this excellent creature art for Goldenflame Dragon’s The Dark Unknown, by the way. You can also back them on Patreon, if you feel so inclined.

You can see a few samples of the comic above, and there are a couple more samples to be found in Dallas Snell’s post on the Shroud of the Avatar website. The artwork is great (obviously), and the story seems interesting, at least based on what’s revealed in the samples. Signed physical copies go for a fairly reasonable rate ($12.59 CAD, so around the $10 mark in USD), and the digital copies are available for half that or less.
