Video game brand marketers love properties that have “transmedia” potential, whether for film, TV, books, comics or anything else. Comic geeks and gamers have a lot in common, and so it makes perfect sense to take popular game franchises to the realm of comics. Sony has teamed with DC Comics to produce an inFamous comic series, divided into six volumes.

The volumes are intended to introduce new enemies, settings and plots that will be present within the sequel game inFamous 2. The comic, penned by William Harms and illustrated by Eric Nguyen, will focus on the exploits of Cole in between the two video game titles as he moves from Empire City to New Marais.
