Issue #1 debuts November 2026 and will feature cover art by Esad Ribi\u0107, D&D 5e Key Art Artist Tyler Jacobson, Antonio Jos\u00e9 Manzanedo (foil variant), Karen Darboe, Mateus Manhanini, and Eric Canete (1:25 ratio variant). Erika Ishii, voice actor and live play talent on Dimension 20, will write an essay for the backmatter.<\/p>\n

“This book is the very definition\u00a0of a passion project for us,” said Kelly. “We’ve been roleplaying together for as long as we’ve been a writing team, which is only slightly\u00a0less than we’ve been friends. Playing D&D is how we started to fuse our\u00a0individual storytelling instincts\u00a0into the incredible blade of our partnership; if a table wants to tell imaginative, emotional stories, then it needs to work off of a core of collaboration, creativity and trust. It’s one of the reasons that we think D&D is one of the greatest games ever made.\u00a0Yes, the mechanics and game design are tip-top – yes, its magic system is incredible and we will\u00a0be using it to its ABSOLUTE FULLEST – but MOST IMPORTANTLY…D&D\u00a0is a game that can never be “won”, but which can make you a better person through playing. Of course, player catharsis only comes from character pain…and sadly for our characters, we’re about to end the world.”<\/p>\n

Lanzing added, “Dungeons & Dragons<\/i>\u00a0is a distillation of everything we love about story – a collision of arcane prophesy, ever-growing characters, and wild spectacle, wrapped in a mystery that reaches to the very beginnings of D&D itself. Ibraim, Esad, and our entire artistic team are laboring to push this story as hard as we possibly can – this is the new ongoing, flagship D&D story and every issue, we\u2019re going to fulfill that promise. This is the fantasy comic we\u2019ve been desperate to bring into the world – not another deconstruction, but a timeless tale made with everything modern comics has to offer. Whether you\u2019re new to the Forgotten Realms or a level 20 paladin looking for the next ground shaking fantasy epic,\u00a0Dungeons & Dragons\u00a0<\/i>is for you.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cDUNGEONS & DRAGONS: The Fallbacks<\/i>\u00a0#1 is both a solid introduction to the world of D&D and an adventure that’s laced with plenty of humor.\u201d\u2014AIPT Comics<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a genuinely enjoyable, action-packed issue that hits the ground running and doesn\u2019t stop until it absolutely has to, striking a similar action-comedy vibe to the DUNGEONS & DRAGONS movie,\u00a0Honor Among Thieves<\/i>.\u201d\u2014Midlife Gamer Geek<\/p>\n

\u201cEven if you have no idea who Tess, Anson, Cazrin, Lark, Baldric, or Uggie are,\u00a0The Fallbacks<\/i>\u00a0is an easy series to jump into and still have fun!\u201d\u2014Gaming Trend<\/p>\n

\u201cDUNGEONS & DRAGONS: The Fallbacks<\/i>\u00a0#1 is an entertaining start as the classic property finds a new comic publisher with Dark Horse . . . . It\u2019s a casual adventure that is welcoming to all who want to join the party.\u201d\u2014Graphic Policy<\/p>\n

\u201cOverall,\u00a0The Fallbacks<\/i>\u00a0does a great job of tiptoeing the line between the established D&D lore and visual style and a more modern, humorous vibe that keeps the pages turning from start to finish.\u201d\u2014Big Comic Page<\/p>\n

\u201cGreg and his team knocked this issue and series out of the park.\u201d\u2014Nerd Initiative<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
