This is a whole new story, not an attempt to turn the comic into a game. Will we get to see any of the characters from the original comic appear in "Dead Space: Extraction?"ĪJ: One or two, sure, but blink and you'll miss them. It's literally happening at the same time as the story we already saw, but in different parts of the Aegis VII facility.
Plus, while the main characters are all new, they all have a very different perspective to the characters we've already seen.ĪJ: The first part of the game, on the colony, takes place alongside the comics. It was fun, especially revisiting the colony and making it all fit in with the comic storylines. CBR recently talked to Antony about his work on the second installment of the franchise, and also got some thoughts from Ben about his work on the comic.ĬBR: Antony, how did you end up getting involved with "Dead Space: Extraction," and what was it like getting to revisit the franchise again?Īntony Johnston: We started talking about it before the original "Dead Space" was even finished EA had decided they were going to do a new game for the Wii, rather than a port, and asked if I was interested in writing the new script, as everyone was very happy with how "Dead Space" itself turned out. Antony re-teamed with artist Ben Templesmith for the comic, who provided the visuals for last year's series. Antony Johnston, who wrote the original comic series and also worked on the game, is penning the story for both the video game and the comic this time around.
Fans of the original "Dead Space" will recognize some familiar names attached to the latest projects.
