World of Warcraft is a comic book series set in the Warcraft universe and released monthly in a standard American comic format.
Publication history
At the time of its conception, the ongoing comic was set for two story arcs, both six issues each. Both were set concurrent with the events of The Burning Crusade.[1] Later, it was expanded to last 25 issues.[2]
On December 16, 2009, WildStorm stated that the publication of the World of Warcraft comic series had been changed from monthly issues to original graphic novels to be released in 2010.[needs update] The special, World of Warcraft: Beginnings and Ends, would be the last issue released and both the original comic (planned to be renamed to Alliance from issue 26) and the future Horde title had been canceled.[3]
World of Warcraft: Beginnings and Ends is a one-shot special issue that introduced new Alliance and Horde characters that had not been seen in the ongoing series.
