Dead Space’snarrative is certainly special, despite the conclusion’s somewhat disappointing nature. In an attempt to expand theDead Spaceuniverse, EA and Image Comics partnered up for a prequel series of comic books that originally hit stores on June 12, 2025. Newsarama iscurrently hosting the first full issue of the seriesfor those who missed out.
The comic sheds a bit of light on Unitarian theology, as well as the origins of the Marker in relation to theIshimura’sarrival. It is a light read that definitely expands what could have been more fleshed out (or dismembered) in the game. It also stays true to the game’s tone and atmosphere – even down tothe lack of urinals.
If reading a comic book is a problem, Hamza obtained the perfect solution way back in August when he visited EA Redwood Shores’ studio. Along with a lesson of all thingsDead Space, the team also gifted him with video versions of the series. Books one through four can be foundhereand five through sixhere.
