Gearbox Entertainment teamed up with Dark Horse Comics to create a series of graphic novels called Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands: Land of the Giants. This comic book tie-in to the Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands franchise is scheduled to hit the store shelves this summer.
Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands: Land of the Giants is written by Paul Tobin (Marvel Comics veteran), illustrated by Luisa Russo (Italian artist and long-time Dark Horse Comics collaborator), coloring is done by Heather Breckel (Marvel & Dark Horse Comics), and the lettering will be handled by Deron Bennett who is known for his work on Masters of the Universe: Revelation and the Overwatch: New Blood comics.

My Perspective
I wasn’t expecting this but it is a pleasant surprise. I’m glad they went with the graphic novel approach. I recently did a poll and Borderlands comics was high on the list of demands so seeing GBX do something like that for one of their other franchises is a win.
The cover looks good. The illustrator does have a different drawing style than what we usually see with Gearbox’s artwork. The Gearbox artists have a unique way on how they do their line work and while this looks different it isn’t bad (They probably have a different target audience than the 40+ male content creator).
Tiny Tina looks great, there are a lot of details but definitely going for the cuteness factor.
Valentine looks a bit too handsome, as someone who has its act together but Valentine in TTWL definitely has shortcomings.
