An RPG comic from the writer of Birds of Prey, Secret Six, the best run of Deadpool and more? Be still our beating hearts, but it’s true.

Humblewood is a bird-based setting for 5th Edition that launched to significant fanfare and it’s now available on sale as part of a special promotion through Deck of Many (the awesome deck-based rpg accessories site who launched Humblewood as their first foray into the world of roleplaying settings), offering the core setting book (at a discount) as well as many supplements and, as you’ll see today, eight different comics set in the rich and wonderful world of Humblewood.

You can read the first one for free, and why wouldn’t you when the author is Gail Simone, the writer responsible for hits on both sides of the Marvel-DC line, including (but not limited to) Wonder WomanAction Comics, Birds of Prey, and pretty much everything great about Batgirl? You can find the comic available for free on Deck of Many and download it right now. You can also grab the Core book for Humblewood for ~30% off. Check it out below.

Humblewood is an exciting new Campaign Setting for 5th Edition that includes ten original player races, new monsters, magic items, and a compelling adventure for 1st to 5th level characters.

In the world of Everden, nestled between the mighty Crest mountain range and the vast marshes of the Mokk Fields, lies a mystical forest known as Humblewood that hums with the Great Rhythm of nature. It has been ruled for generations by the birdfolk who inhabit the Great Tree City of Alderheart. Humblewood has endured for centuries thanks to the industry and compassion of its people but now the fires have come, and the Woods have been thrown into chaos. Flames ravage the land and destroy the homes of the humblefolk, stoking a growing resentment against the birdfolk, whose cities have managed to avoid the worst of the fires so far. Hatred burns in the hearts of those who have lost lives they cherished, and these once peaceful peoples now take up the sword and turn to banditry. The disaffected turn their gaze on Alderheart, and threaten to reduce an age of peace to ashes. Yet there is still hope. Even in these dark times, brave heroes can be found within the Wood. Only they can quell the raging flames that have been unleashed upon the land, and restore balance to the realm.
