At its New York Comic-Con 2020 online panel, TokyoPop announced the upcoming release of the Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness graphic novel, based on the recently-revealed CG anime series of the same name.
The publishing company said the “manga-style” graphic novel will be released “alongside the debut of the anime.” The RE anime series will be seen via Netflix worldwide next year.
According to the press release, “the graphic novel series will follow protagonists Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield in an adaptation of the CG animation.”
“I’ll never forget back in the beginning of my career, when as a young correspondent for an American gaming publication, I interviewed CAPCOM’s game director before the first game’s release,” said Stu Levy, Founder and CEO at TokyoPop. “He and his R&D team were so excited to bring cinematic horror storytelling into the video game world. And now we at TOKYOPOP can contribute to the incredible franchise built on their original vision. It’s a dream come true!”
The publication of the graphic novel is the latest addition in Capcom’s plan for fans to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Resident Evil in 2021.
