Dungeons & Dragons: Best of Minsc & Boo—SPOTLIGHT
Jim Zub (w) • Max Dunbar, Nelson Dániel, Dean Kotz, Francesco Mortarino (a) • James Biggie (c)
Get ready for the third installment of the legendary Baldur’s Gate video game with these adventures featuring some of the series’ most beloved characters: the ranger of dubious sanity, Minsc, and his miniature giant space hamster, Boo!
After decades spent in magical stasis, Minsc and Boo awaken in a Baldur’s Gate that is very different from the one they knew, but there will always be evil in need of smiting! SMITING! And while they’re perfectly capable of kicking the butt of badness to the Spine of the World and back on their own, it never hurts to have a little help from their companions, the rest of the Baldur’s Gate heroes. Now, say it with us: “Go for the eyes, Boo!”
