Back in October,
MARVEL Comics announced the release of
Tron: Betrayal, a two-issue limited mini-series that bridges the gap as a sequel to "Tron" (1982) and as a prequel to "Tron: Legacy," which hits theaters worldwide on December 17, 2010.
Amazon is now reporting that the tie-in comic book will be released on November 16, 2010 - one month before "Tron: Legacy" comes to theaters. Various extra-sized issues of the comic will feature different cover art by
Invincible Iron Man's Salvadore Larroca, and interior art and writing from some of the comic industry's biggest writers and artists.
Here is an excerpt from the official synopsis from MARVEL:
Kevin Flynn is now in charge of Encom, the world's largest video game company. Kevin, a break-through game developer, has built the Grid, a digital world filled with living programs. This new virtual world is about to develop a life of its own and, in order to control it, Flynn's going to need to help of an old friend...Tron. Experience this highly anticipated prequel only in MARVEL Comics this month!
