White Wolf Publishing has licensed the rights to a comic book series based on its successful roleplaying game Exalted to Toronto-based UDON Entertainment. The first issue in the series will be on comic book stands in October of 2005, and a special #0 issue comes out this summer.

UDON has a longstanding involvement with the Exalted property, having provided covers and interior art for many supplements, as well as covers for the Exalted novel series and all card art for the upcoming Exalted Trading Card Game. This history of close collaboration has given White Wolf confidence that UDON can do justice to the property.

“We’re thrilled to see Exalted make the leap into comics, and the folks at UDON are just the right people to do it,” said John Chambers, one of the Exalted line developers at White Wolf. “These guys have always gotten just what Exalted is about,” added Exalted art director Brian Glass, “and it’s great to see that enthusiasm hit new levels with the comics.”

“We’ve been chomping at the bit to do this for a while now,” said Jim Zubkavich, project manager at UDON and co-author of the comic. “I can’t wait to get this into the hands of fans who’ve been dreaming of seeing their favorite game as an over-the-top comic series. Plus, it’ll be great to see the tons of comic fans discover this fantastic property for the first time.” Zubkavich is working with co-writer Gala Ferriere and artists Noi Sackda, Greg Boychuk, and Roberto Campus on the series. Coming together for the first time, members of the art team have previously worked on titles including Street Fighter, GI Joe, Warlands and Thundercats, as well as eye-popping covers for the Exalted RPG line.

The first full issue of the Exalted comic releases this fall, but a special preview issue (Exalted #0) will be on sale at the White Wolf and UDON booths at various summer comic and gaming conventions beginning with Origins in Columbus, Ohio (June 30-July 3). In addition to an exclusive prelude story, Exalted #0 features behind-the-scenes information about the series, as well as sketches and exclusive gaming content provided by White Wolf. Each regular issue features two stories and all-new game material from White Wolf.
