Pathfinder 5
Pathfinder #5, a comic book written by Jim Zub with art by Andrew Huerta and Jake Bilbao and colors by Ross Campbell and Mohan, was released in February 2013. The issue features covers by Erik Jones, Lucio Parillo, Matteo Scalera, and Tyler Walpole, and Pathfinder Roleplaying Game content by James Jacobs.
“Captured by the cult behind the goblin plague and subjected to nightmarish rituals, the Pathfinder adventurers see only darkness on the road ahead. Hope lies with their oldest member who narrowly escaped—Hidden, alone and unsure... one soul against a hundred pairs of gnashing teeth and a cult of demonic evil.
”
The Paizo.com exclusive cover by Jorge Maese is an homage to the poster for the film Attack of the 50 Foot Woman by Reynold Brown.
