Bionic Commando Pre-order bonus announced!Vote Now!

Gearoid Reidy, Saturday 19-07-2008, 03:34:12

Andy Diggle, the writer of the Bionic Commando: Chain of Command comic book, has let the news slip about the pre-order bonus for Bionic Commando - a limited edition printed version of our weekly webcomic Chain of Command, with an exclusive cover by legendary comic book artist Dave Gibbons, the artist and co-creator of Watchmen (to be a major motion picture in 2009, fact fans). 

Read the full interview with Andy right here at Newsarama.

We'll have more news on the comic book at, appropriately enough, next week's Comicon in San Diego, where Andy and Ben will be hosting a panel about Bionic Commando, and where Dave Gibbons himself will be performing signings at the Capcom booth!

We'll also have our own exclusive interview with Andy Diggle next week to find out more about his involvement in the project. Til then, gaze longingly at the preview artwork and dream about it being in your hands...

I can imagine it now...

A sweet card-like box with the Bionic Commando logo printed on the front containing the beautiful plastic smell of a factory sealed Comic and Game. BEAUTIFUL.

Awesome add-on

Adding the comic only sweetens the deal.
It was already worth the money, but this makes me see "franchise" becoming more and more of a serious possibility. And that is a good thing.
The world needs heroes who want to do the right thing, and Nathan RAD Spencer and Super Joe seem like those guys.
The more people - kids and adults alike - get to see people trying to do the right thing, the more I believe that people will try harder to help our world.
I find it amazing that a game that's about two decades old can get me all patriotic, but fighting bad guys who only wish the world ruin is something we should all strive for.

Hitl...Master D

Found a new video where it sounds like a certain Master D is giving a speech in the music. Is this how the song goes or has someone moderated it? Either way it sounds really cool and awesome!

a week?!?!?

O_O

But... but it doesn't mention the PC... Another innocent slip up I hope...

Anyway, on topic: How restricted the pre-order bonus will be considering the purchase location? Say, what if I'd like to buy the game from a digital distributor (to actually get it on release), like Steam?
