So, October’s White Dwarf, the second issue of the relaunched monthly, is just around the corner, and it’s also the start of another new era – for the White Dwarf team this time, as long-time Editor Jes Bickham, who oversaw last month’s sterling first issue of the new monthly White Dwarf, has moved on to pastures new in the Design Studio.

…So, what is all that other cool stuff?

Well…

  • An interview with Jes Goodwin (another of those much-requested features we’re delighted to be able to bring you this month)
  • Simon Grant’s Space Wolves in Army of the Month
  • A huge Battle Report: part of our cover feature on the Genestealer Cults, we send in the Deathwatch.
  • Will of Iron: not only do we have an interview with the creative team behind Titan’s new series of Warhammer 40,000 comics, but we’ve also got an exclusive prologue, issue #0 free with the magazine!
  • Paint Splatter: a highlighting special, bringing you layering and edge highlighting, then putting it into action on the Blood Angels
  • Sprues and Glue: Genestealer Hybrids sneak their way into the Astra Militarum, and we show you how to model them up
  • Plus a host of regulars and much, much more. Check out our Facebook page for some previews coming up over the next week!

So, with October’s issue, as well as it being an absolutely cracking issue packed with highlights, we think you can really start to see the sheer range and depth of articles we’re going to be bringing you each issue. Of course, we’re always keen to hear what you think, so why not let us know what some of your favourites have been over these first two issues?

Enjoy the new issue!

More On the New 40k Comic

We had been hearing for awhile that something BIG would be coming in a future issue of White Dwarf, and now we know for sure.

October’s issue of the new monthly White Dwarf magazine lines up with the release of Titan Comic’s new 40k line.

Diamond Comics let the cat out of the bag at their San Diego Comic-Con lunch meeting for retailers back in July:
