Dark Horse’s Silver FCBD book will run with ARMS and Korra

The second and final Free Comic Book Day freebie from Dark Horse Comics boasts Legend of Korra and Nintendo’s ARMS.

Silver

We outlined the Gold offering from Dark Horse a few days ago, and now their Silver book has been officially unveiled. It’s a pretty good one too. Actually, depending on your interests, this might be better.

Legend of Korra is a spinoff of Avatar, and has a massive audience. So that’s a marquee inclusion right there. Then there’s ARMS, which is Nintendo’s latest IP. It’s a fighting game that features characters with spring-like arms. Hence the name. And, since it’s Nintendo, I’m sure you could have guessed that it’s already got a great following too.

Here’s the rundown:

First, Avatar Korra pairs up with an unlikely sidekick for a super-important, top-secret mission to track down a pack of lost pets in a story written by The Legend of Korra co-creator Michael Dante DiMartino with art by Jayd Aït-Kaci and Vivian Ng.

In a story based on Nintendo’s exclusive fighting game ARMS, a young fighter trains tirelessly to reach the top in the ARMS League Grand Prix—but first, he must defeat 599 other contenders! ARMS is written by Ian Flynn (Sonic the Hedgehog, Mega Man) with art by Joe Ng (Street Fighter, Overwatch: Binary).

And to wrap things up, our FCBD all-ages issue features an equally beautiful and fun The Legend of Korracover by Jayd Aït-Kaci and Vivian Ng!

Free Comic Book Day is May 5th, 2018.
