Dungeons & Dragons: The Fallbacks Volume 1

Join the Fallbacks, your new favorite Dungeons & Dragons party, for their first thrilling comic book adventure!

In a time of fickle gods and feckless governors, the world yearns for heroes! But what it gets are the Fallbacks - a party of daring, dubious, and dysfunctional adventurers who arrive in the city of Loudwater in search of gold and glory. There’s plenty of both to go around if the Fallbacks can survive long enough to find it.

Blocking their path to fame and fortune is a Monster’s Manual worth of threats: sneaky kobolds, lumbering skeletons, creeping carrion crawlers, plotting politicians, a ferocious white dragon, and the gods themselves. But perhaps worst of all is the rival team of adventurers that are determined to humiliate the Fallbacks.   

It seems like everyone is out to get the Fallbacks, but at least they can rely on their party: Tess, the sly elf rogue, Anson, the loyal human fighter, Cazrin, the inquisitive human wizard, Lark, the bombastic tiefling bard, Baldric, the devil-may-care dwarf cleric, and Uggie, the ever-hungry otyugh companion. With enough sword swinging, spell slinging, and scheming, they might just escape with a few gold pieces. 

Join author Greg Pak, award-winning writer of Planet Hulk, Darth Vader, and Lawful, along with artist Wilton Santos, the fan-favorite illustrator of Break Out and Marvel’s Voices, for a Dungeons & Dragons tale that will have you rooting for your new favorite adventuring party: the Fallbacks!
