Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves – The Feast of the Moon is a comic book that will introduce the main cast of characters from the D&D movie in a story that takes place before the events of the film. Set to be released by IDW Publishing – which has previously released comic books based on the universe of D&D, as well as Sonic The Hedgehog comics and the Locke & Key comic books – the prequel will set up the narrative of the upcoming film adapted from the tabletop roleplaying game.

The Feast of the Moon will follow the story of Edgin, the leader of a band of thieves, who suddenly finds himself embroiled in a conflict between an immoral bandit king and the citizens of a local town that Edgin and his fellow thieves have been stranded in. Trapped by the bandits, Edgin agrees to aid the townspeople to defend themselves against their assailants. However, the danger of the situation begins to test the thieves’ loyalties and allegiances change as a result – raising the stakes even higher.

The Feast of the Moon was written by Jeremy Lambert and Ellen Boener, with the artwork being created by Eduardo Ferigato and Guillermo Sanna. Lambert commented that the characters featured in the comic and fantasy TRPG film adaptation “aren’t the brave, gallant, all-powerful warriors that will forever win the day – they're regular people […] they’re emotionally messy and are completely in over their heads.”

IDW has been publishing D&D comics for a few years. I haven't picked up any of those, but I'll be snagging this comic, at least digitally via Comixology/Amazon.
