Review: Dungeons and Dragons: The Legend of Drizzt #5

The tale of Drizzt ends in this issue with more twists thana pretzel factory.  After findingPwent the dwarven battleranger turned vampire, Drizzt and Dahlia chase afterthe ghost Dor’crae.

Drizzt and Dahlia leave Pwent to his suicide by sun.  But Pwent decides he doesn’t want todie.  Instead, he grapples with theghost.

Readers will find out the origin of the ghost, the personpressing Dor’crae into service, and the fate of Pwent.

The art is serviceable and standard for the series.

The story was unique enough to earn a few points for beingdifferent.  But this is not a comicthat I could see recommending to anyone other than fans of Salvatore or D&Dplayers/readers.  So you guys willlike this comic.  The mainstreamaudience will not.

Not much more to say about it…
