Prequel Comic for The Darkness 2 Coming Free April 5, 2011

The 2K Games offical twitter feed has announced that a comic tie in for the upcoming game, The Darkness II will be released on Free Comic Book Day this year.

The comic, titled The Darkness II: Confession, will bridge the gap between the stories of The Darkness and The Darkness II, and will serve as a prequel to the events of The Darkness II’s story.

The Darkness was originally a comic book property published by Top Cow and in Summer 2007 became a hot video game for PS3 and Xbox 360 by Starbreeze and 2K Games.

Free Comic Book Day is happening on May 7th of this year.  If you can’t get to your local comic book store on May 7th, the comics released under Free Comic Book Day will stay free for as long as they’re in stock.  Just pick one up and enjoy it.

The Darkness II is coming for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 this year.
