judging by what i saw in the preview images, they didn't play it safe, they just missed the mark entirely.
It should be low on dialogue, and prone to large panoramic shots of empty decrepit locations with a muted color palette. It needs to evoke a sense of loneliness.

Only have to look at the image to understand the entire situation here
It's a real shame, too. The art is really fantastic and could have been the basis for something outside of Dark Souls.

to be fair i don't think a bright pink nude man with anime hair and a face that looks like a frog rolling around a dragon would make for as marketable of a comic
That sounds amazing actually.

yeah and design/lore/tone (hopelessness) wise it's a lot closer to dark souls than this comic

Wellll the fighting could use some work. But I still think it's made up for with pages like [URL="http://gameranx.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/tumblr_o2zxdhgV0z1un4j3ko1_1280.png"]this[/URL]
It looks like garbage in every aspect.

Why did they pick the most mellow and least menacing character in Dark Souls to be an evil antagonist guy?
[QUOTE=Rusty100;50179204]yeah and design/lore/tone (hopelessness) wise it's a lot closer to dark souls than this comic[/QUOTE]
Probably because they pretty much ripped Berserk at every possible moment when creating the world of dark souls

i bet this could've been great if they had gotten another person to do the first sketches.
edit: and pretty much come up with a replacement for every composition.
