Dark Horse's New God of War Comic Reveals What Happened After God of War 3

God of War on PS4 has been one of Sony's best games this year, winning a ton of awards and receiving plenty of praise from critics. While a great game, fans did wonder why it wasn't called God of War 4 since it does take place after God of War 3 and even references events from that title. People who have played both games have also wondered how Kratos managed to get into Asgard.

This answer will be solved in a new God of War comic book coming from Dark Horse Comics. Set sometime after the God of War 3, it will show what happened to Kratos after the massive war with the Gods from Olympus. The series will only be four issues, the first of which comes out on November 14.

Chris Roberson, who wrote the iZombie comic book that the television series is based on, will be writing the four-issue series. Dan Jackson, who has drawn some of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer comics for Dark Horse, will be providing interior art for the series.

Here's the plot summary from Dark Horse Comics (via ComicBook.com):

"The God of War comic series finds Kratos living in the remote Norse Wilds after his war on the gods of Olympus. Seeking to put the rage that defined most of his life behind him, Kratos inadvertently sparks a feud with a mysterious cult of berserkers after attempting to save a stranger being mauled by a monstrous bear. But for the former Ghost of Sparta, no good deed goes unpunished."

Fans will have to wait a while before the God of War comic book comes out. The acclaimed PS4 game is available now.
