Dynamite Entertainment announced the return of Pathfinder Comics with a new series, Pathfinder: City of Secrets. The first issue releases in local comic stores and digitally May 2014.
Pathfinder: City of Secrets #1 is written by returning superstar writer Jim Zub, with interior art by Leandro Oliveira and cover art by Genzoman, Carlos Gomez, Sean Izaakse and Steven Cummings. This issue marks the beginning of a new adventure series and is the perfect starting point for new readers. Each issue also includes an exclusive Pathfinder Roleplaying Game encounter, sourcebook appendix, and a bonus removable playable tactical map/art poster.
In Pathfinder: City of Secrets #1, the Pathfinder heroes head to the city of Magnimar, and danger isn’t far behind. As the wizard Ezren seeks an audience with the Pathfinder Society, his adventuring allies explore the city’s ancient magic, well-hidden secrets, and deep political divides. The dangers and opportunities of the big city could bring the adventurers closer together-or tear them apart!

“Writing Pathfinder has been a wonderful experience,” says writer Jim Zub. “The gang at Paizo have crafted a robust and diverse fantasy world that lends itself to dramatic and exciting stories. I can’t wait for readers to dive into City of Secrets and see what happens next to the Pathfinder iconic characters.”
“In this story arc, the Pathfinder adventurers leave caves and villages behind for the big city,” adds Paizo Publisher Erik Mona. “Jim Zub continues to reveal more and more about our favorite adventurers, and with help from the game supplement included in each issue, this series also reveals more and more about the Pathfinder world and the treacherous secrets at the heart of one of its most important cities. The scope keeps getting bigger and bigger, and Jim’s characterizations keep getting better and better!”
“City of Secrets features a new artist, Leandro Oliveira, who I think fans are really going to like, and Magnimar, a huge new city for the iconics to explore, full of danger and opportunity,” states Pathfinder Comics series editor Rich Young. “Jim continues to take the characters and story into cool and exciting territory…I look forward to reading each script he turns in!”
