Left 4 Dead comic hitting Xbox Live photo

Want to know how Bill, Louis, Zoey and Francis wind up in the South? The only way to find out will be to read the Left 4 Dead comic, which Valve is planning to release on Xbox Live. The comic will be a first for Xbox Live, and it will explain how the original four survivors manage to meet Ellis, Rochelle, Coach and Nick. 

The comic should be a good way to pump us up for The Passing, Valve's upcoming DLC that features the original four survivors. So far, we don't know if Microsoft wants to have the nerve to charge anybody for it, but knowing Microsoft, it's a distinct possibility. In any case, The Passing is out this month, so keep an eye out for the comic soon. 

Xbox Live comic will link the Left 4 Deads [OXM]

A first? Didn't Dead Space have a Live comic? Or do you mean it will be on Live before anywhere else" Either way, should be a nice little bonus, providing we don't have to pay for the damned thing.

"So far, we don't know if Microsoft wants to have the nerve to charge anybody for it."

AHAHAHAHA, yes of course we don't. Microsoft will suddenly have a change of heart and give a videogame product/feature away for free.

Oh shi- I was mistaken. I thought this was a dlc addon, not a comic. God, if they charge for this, and people buy it, I will cry.

If it's coming out on 360 first with no apparent mention of PC, you can be certain they'll charge for it. :\

If they charge for it, I'll simply Google it and boom, comic found. They'd be stupid to charge when the smart people will just find it online somewhere.

Ok, so it comes out this month...have I somehow missed an exact release date for this? Just...this month? That's all I've ever heard about the matter, what the hell.

This should be free and it should be DLC. I'm poor and Valve owes me free things. Boycott. Wah.

Well that was a half-hearted impersonation of a bitchy Live user. Get it right, at least: Valve <i>wants</i> The Passing to be free, it's Microsoft who's cockblocking them.

@Jim

Do we know yet when the DLC for the original L4D is due? Or is it coming at the same time as "The Passing"? For some reason I'm more excited for that one...

I am also more in anticipation of the L4D DLC, for the reason that I do not yet own L4D2 (waiting for a Steam sale or something).

@ Blasto - yeah, that little nugget slipped me by too, better get back into it, its been all of a week since I last played.

Any chance of it coming in a normal comic book format?
