The next generation of video game comics arrives from Dark Horse and Deep Silver this \"MetroLastLightComic\"<\/a>May! The Gospel According to Artyom<\/i>, a Metro: Last Light<\/i> digital graphic novel, is a unique collaboration between Metro 2033<\/i> author Dmitry Glukhovsky and Dark Horse Comics. <\/p>\n

 
\nMetro: Last Light<\/i> is a first-person-shooter video game and the highly anticipated sequel to the extraordinary Metro 2033<\/i>. In the year 2034, a nuclear war has turned the world into a postapocalyptic wasteland. In Moscow, the tunnels of the Metro have become a new home for the former inhabitants of the city. Within the catacombs, they fight for their survival, fending off hordes of hideous mutants born from the toxic atmosphere, as well as other factions desperate to take control of what little hospitable land remains. As they fight, they also search for a doomsday device that could be the key to their victory. A civil war is inevitable. During these dark hours, the players will embody Artyom and become the last light for all of mankind.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Telling the story of Artyom between the fateful events of Metro 2033<\/i> and Metro: Last Light<\/i>, the digital graphic novel The Gospel According to Artyom<\/i> is available exclusively to customers who preorder Metro: Last Light<\/i> through Steam and other selected retailers worldwide.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“The Gospel According to Artyom’<\/i> is in fact the last chapter of Metro 2033 and the first chapter of Metro: Last Light<\/i>, linking both stories together and giving an unexpected insight on what really happened in the beginning of it all. Reading it will change your understanding of my saga,” said Dmitry Glukhovsky.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The novel Metro 2033<\/i> served as the inspiration for the creation of both video games, and Glukhovsky personally contributed a huge volume of dialogue for Metro: Last Light<\/i>. Glukhovsky\u2019s novels Metro 2033<\/i> and Metro 2034<\/i> have sold more than two million copies worldwide. In 2013, his latest book, Metro 2035<\/i>, will be available outside of Russia.<\/span><\/p>\n
