Walter and Louise Simonson interviewed at NYCC

Blizzplanet has a video they’ve been saving from the New York Comic Con a little while back. This time, they chat with Walter and Louise Simonson, part of the team behind the World of Warcraft comic, which at the time, had just re-introduced Garona Halforcen, the half-orc assassin who is likely about to make a long-awaited appearance in the MMO world of Azeroth. The couple say that while they can’t tell us much, Garona fans have some cool stuff to look forward to, as we’re going to learn more about both her “past” and “future.” There are some other little lore tidbits in the interview as well, including what’s up with Varian Wrynn and his counterpart, Lo’gosh. And there’s good news for fans of the Horde — while the comic book has so far had an Alliance lead character, Blizzard is setting up new things for the Horde as well.

Clearly here are two people really ensconced in the World of Warcraft — they both seem to have a really great and passionate grasp on the story behind WoW, and a real care for how the future of the story unfolds. We can’t wait to see it.
