For 15 years, Valve has defined the cutting edge of video games. Now Valve joins Dark Horse Comics to bring three critically acclaimed, fan-favorite series to print in a hardcover collection of comics based on Left 4 Dead, Team Fortress, and Portal. With more than 200 pages of story, Valve Presents: The Sacrifice and Other Steam-Powered Stories is a must-read for fans looking to further explore the games they love, or comics readers interested in dipping their toes into new mythos!
“There’s a lot of overlap between comics and video game fans in Portland,” said TFAW Senior Director of Retail Operations Andrew McIntire. “Our Valve signing is going to be the perfect storm of these two media–plus, we’re really stoked about including on-site gaming into the mix.”
Be sure to pick up your copy of Valve Presents: The Sacrifice and Other Steam-Powered Stories before it’s available anywhere else! Meet the creators behind some of the most exciting games–and comics–in the world at TFAW in Portland November 12 from 7-10 p.m., and play games like Left 4 Dead, Team Fortress, and Portal 2.
