The "senses-shattering" tragedy of Westeros delivers its most crushing, "mind-blowing" blow as the fate of the realm takes a dark and permanent turn. Released in November 2013, this "weird and twisted" issue continues Dynamite's faithful, uncompromised comic translation of George R.R. Martin’s masterpiece A Game of Thrones, capturing the gritty medieval realism and "stupefying" dark fantasy elements with absolute "visual fluidity." At White Dragon Comics, we keep these "investment-grade" modern keys stocked so you can experience the foundational chapters of the visual saga before the television series completely reshaped pop culture.

Issue Summary: The "Senses-Shattering" Judgement of Joffrey

Daniel Abraham masterfully adapts the source text, plunging readers headfirst into the high-stakes chess match for the Iron Throne where a single "mind-bending" misstep leads to execution.

• The "Mind-Bending" Public Confession: In a desperate attempt to protect his daughters, Eddard Stark steps forward at the Great Sept of Baelor, confessing to a "weird and twisted" treason he did not commit in exchange for a promised exile to the Night's Watch.

• The "Weird and Twisted" Execution: Overturning the carefully arranged political mercy of his mother and council, King Joffrey Baratheon demands a "stupefyingly" cruel sentence, ordering Ilyn Payne to strike off Lord Stark's head in a "senses-shattering" climax that leaves Gotham-level madness looking tame.

• Visceral Interior Art: Tommy Patterson delivers "mind-blowing" fantasy pencils, rendering the massive crowd at Baelor, the flashing steel of Ice, and the "senses-shattering" emotional horror of Sansa and Arya with a "visual fluidity" that remains truly "stupefying."
