The latest Overwatch comic reveals a lot about the Halloween event and showcases plenty of skins.
In the meantime, it is virtually confirmed that Overwatch will host a Halloween event – the clues are piling up, and more and more leaks are speaking a very clear language. In line with the event, Blizzard also wants to release a new comic, the cover of which will have been shown previously.
Currently, the complete comic is available in English, albeit only in low quality. Here you can check out the individual pages: Link to the comic
The story takes place in the past, when everything at Overwatch was more or less “in order”. The whole team gathers for a cozy Halloween evening, sharing their stories to create a spooky atmosphere.
At some point, it’s Reinhardt’s turn to tell the story of Dr. Junkenstein, a brilliant scientist who built wonderful robots. Because he received no recognition for it, he wanted to take a step further and create “real life”. With the help of a witch, he succeeded, and his monster made everyone tremble who did not appreciate his work – but at a price.
Sure, the story may not be completely new to most, but the comic is definitely worth a long look, as the typical Blizzard humor and the numerous costumes that will surely be available as skins make these 8 pages a nice entertainment. Who wouldn’t want to hear Reinhardt desperately shout “MY GOD! A MONSTER!”?
Those who want to experience the comic in better quality and in German will have to wait for the official release – but that should only be a few days away.
