Gears of War comic coming in October; Epic Games follows Vivendi in signing DC Comics deal...
Epic Games and DC Comics have today announced a deal that will take Marcus Fenix and the rest of the COG team to ink, pen, and paper this October, with confirmation of a Gears of War comic book series.
Further details on the comic series is expected ahead of its launch in the Autumn, but today's deal is the second time this week that DC Comics has secured a videogames brand for its WildStorm label. The Superman/Batman publisher has also secured the rights for a comic book series based on Radical Entertainment's Prototype with Vivendi Games. The Prototype comic series is expected to arrive this August.
"We are thrilled to be working with DC Comics to further bring to life the Gears of War universe. A lot of our developers are huge comic fans, and have loved the personas and chronicles unique to DC Comics since childhood," said Dr. Michael Capps, president of Epic Games. "The Gears of War storyline and characters that millions of gamers have come to cherish will be a perfect fit under the WildStorm imprint."
"Big guns and monsters - what a perfect comic book for WildStorm! We have an opportunity to work closely with Epic to add to the canon of the Gears of War mythos, so you can imagine how excited we all are, said Hank Kanalz, VP - General Manager, WildStorm. "Epic sets the bar very high, in graphics, story, and gameplay - and expect no less from our series, starting with our lead-in arc that fills in the gaps between the first game and the upcoming sequel."
Oh, and if you aren't aware, the comic book series will hit just a few weeks before Gears of War 2 hits Xbox 360 in November.

lol why would they release it on pc in fact why should they all you lot will do is download the pirate version anyway which is what happened with the first gears game on pc so instead of [#@!?]ing about it not comming out on pc youve only got your selfs to blame (or the idiots who diddnt pay for it in the shops/downloaded the pirate version)

I got a hang of Gears 2 when my friend lent me his xBox 360 and the Graphics seem to be better than Gears 1 .I tried using the xBox controller on my laptop to play Gears 1 and later I used the same to play Gears 2 on xBox.But didn't quite seem to enjoy the gameplay with xbox controller. I wonder if we could attach a mouse and keyboard to xBox so that I can play better as Mouse and Keyboard are far more better while playing shooter games.Even though the game Gears 2 looks great I am still convinced that I should go ahead to buy xBox just for the sake of playing this game.I will definately buy a Licensed version of Gears 2 if ported on PC or if the xBox 360 game Dvd can be run on Pcs or Laptops using some simulator or attaching an xBox DVD Drive.A PC version of this game will do wonders and justice to this game but the ending Boss fight is not so good.I enjoyed the Last Boss viz. General Raam . They should make final Boss Fight more challenging just like we had as General Raam. Anyways, I just hope Epic wakes up in time and release Gears 2 for Pc with a standard Specfication to run on PC viz. RAM , Graphices and CPU Requirements quoted on the released PC version of Gears 2 so that people cannot complain that Gears 2 is also glitchy.Gears 1 ran fine on my Laptop and I thank EPIC for providing such a wonderful game.

sorry but how long did it take for the first gears game to be ported to the pc, and yet pc players have been moaning about cliff even before the games release on the 360.
just get used to it gears 2 isnt comming out on pc, your more likly to see mario galaxy on the 360 than seeing gears 2 on the pc.

lol if you playing on a pirated/chipped/modded 360 its no wonder you cant play on live not only that but anyone with a modded xbox playing pirated game cant play multiplayer matches on live as microsoft instantly bans any account found playing on modded hardware which im in full support to them as the scum that pirate games/software cost the industry millions every year and you wonder why games cost so much, it all down to cheap scates not paying like all the other decent honest people out there (no piracy would mean cheaper games plus if the pirates haddnt made illeagl versions of the first gears you would have gears 2 on pc) so stop blaming Cliff Bleszinski its you fu.ck.ing pirates that need to rot in hell
