George R.R. Martin’s getting to have a bit of history with comic adaptions. DC adapted Sandkings as a graphic novel all the way back in 1987. The Hedge Knight goes back to 2003 as a monthly serial. And then Dynamite started adapting A Game of Thrones in 2011. Now Dynamite is adapting Martin’s second book in A Song of Ice and Fire, A Clash of Kings.
I don’t really have to explain about Game of Thrones / A Song of Ice and Fire at this point, right? Didn’t think so. Let’s just leave it that the comic adaptions are of the actual books, not the TV show.
