The Worlds of Dungeons & Dragons

A bold experiment from Devil's Due Publishing that launched in 2008, The Worlds of Dungeons & Dragons is a seven-issue anthology series that explores the vast planes of the iconic tabletop RPG. Each issue presents multiple standalone stories set in different D&D settings, from the classic Forgotten Realms to the dark fantasy world of Ravenloft, weaving together adventures that capture the spirit of a campaign session. The series is best known for assembling a rotating roster of talent, including writers and artists like Jeff Grubb and Michael Avon Oeming, who brought a distinct, creator-driven energy to licensed fantasy comics. It matters as a unique bridge between the game's lore and sequential art, offering a sampler of D&D's narrative potential without being tied to a single hero or ongoing plotline.
