Dragon Age has seen numerous comic adaptations and spinoffs over the years. If you want a preview of what The Veilguard’s storyline will bring, you’ll want to check out Dragon Age: The Missing. The 88-page graphic novel serves as a prequel to The Veilguard that bridges the events of Dragon Age: Inquisition and The Veilguard. It follows Varric Tethras and Lace Harding, who have appeared in previous games and will return for The Veilguard.
For more adventures that fill out the overarching Dragon Age storyline, there’s Dragon Age: The First Five Graphic Novels. This 400-page omnibus collects the Dragon Age: The Silent Grove, Those Who Speak, Until We Sleep, Magekiller, and Knight Errant comic runs into one large paperback volume.
There are plenty of other Dragon Age comics and graphic novels to check out, which should keep you busy for quite some time.
