How many Dresden Files comics are there?
When do they take place? before Stormfront?
or are they a graphical reproduction of Stormfront?
is it kronological in order or are there more Dresden comics in terms of time periods?
for instance a row of comics before SF, and a row between SF and FM?
If they are essential to the story, as in filling between books or before SM then iŽll have to read that before i start on whatever comes after Dresden, propperbly CA.

The first series was the Hugo-nominated Welcome to the Jungle, a 4 issue original piece (now collected in a single volume from Del Rey) that takes front before Storm Front, about a murder at the zoo. We're now on issue 5 of 8 for Storm Front, and will launch into Fool Moon afterwards. Jim is interested in doing more original filler stories, it's just timing between Storm Front and Fool Moon didn't work out.

Don't forget the "Restoration of Faith" adaptation (also a prequel) from Dabel Brothers Showcase / Free Comic Book Day '09 issue.

Just wanted to let everyone know that David Lawrence, the editor of the comic book series, will be appearing at the Pittsburgh Comicon this year.  We are hoping that if there is enough interest and support, we can get Jim himself to come.  The con has spoken to his agent and we can get on his schedule for 2012, but we would love to the the Dabels try to bring him sooner.  Having said that, I thought the comic was a pretty fair adaptation of the book.  I enjoyed it and am really hopefully looking forward to being able to hear Jim speak about the 'Dresden-verse'.

  Where can one get the rest of them?  Funny, first time around didn't care much for Welcome to the Jungle, but it improved on the second go around.. And contained some little insights into Harry and his magic.
