Trivia

...I was only familar with Jae-Hwan's work from the visceral King of Hell series, it was clear from the get-go that his super detailed (yet totally gritty) art style would capture the Warcraft feel perfectly. Translating Warcraft's over-the-top hyper proportionate art style to the 'manga style' was tricker than one might think - but Mr. Kim made it look effortless. Now, I know I'm a bit biased, but I think this book is one of the most strikingly illustrated manga series on the market today.

Notes

• Malorne and demons resembling Archimonde and Mannoroth can be seen in the bonus.
• Information about Sunwell's explosion was later retconned in subsequent material.
