A series of grisly, animalistic murders has rocked the walled town of Gilneas. A detective sets out to expose the perpetrators and finds more than he bargained for. Collecting the five-issue miniseries!

Famous detective Halford Ramsey has fallen head first into the world of “The Worgen,” a new race of creatures in World of Warcraft with a deep, twisted history. Follow the tale of two friends – Ralaar and Arvell – as we see the origin of The Worgen forged in the heat and desperation of an epic battle.

Halford struggles to govern his body and mind, but as he loses more and more of himself to the Worgen form, he feels his self-control slipping away. We delve even further into WORLD OF WARCRAFT lore and learn more about the seductive power of the Worgen. Are they brutal beasts or extraordinary heroes?

Gilneas City erupts into violence as the Worgen attack! During the madness, Halford seeks understanding behind who is friend and who is foe, while also dealing with his own animalistic Worgen urge to kill. In desperation, King Genn forms an unlikely alliance.
