Remember the buzz around the Sea of Conquest comic by Studio Ellipsis? It was a fascinating move to blend new media with traditional storytelling. Well, it looks like we're seeing a trend here, as the much-anticipated Warframe: 1999 expansion is also getting its own prequel comic!
You can dive into this new comic directly from the Warframe website. It delves into the origins of the six Protoframes that make up the Hex Syndicate, the protagonists of the expansion. The comic explores the lives of these six unique characters and the harrowing experiments they endured under the rogue scientist Albrecht Entrati. It's a beautifully illustrated journey that ties into the broader Warframe universe, brought to life by the talented Warframe fan artist, Karu.
But the excitement doesn't stop there! Along with the 33-page prequel comic, you can also snag the cover art to use as a decoration for your landing pad. Plus, free printable 3D miniatures of all the Protoframes are available for you to build and paint, adding a personal touch to your Warframe experience.
Warframe: 1999, though labeled as an expansion, feels like a significant leap forward for the game. It's commendable to see Digital Extremes collaborate with a fan artist like Karu, whose work has enriched the Warframe community. This partnership not only showcases Karu's art to a broader audience but also strengthens the bond between the game and its fans.
