This game came to my attention due to the involvement of Joe Madureira AKA "Joe Mad" one of the chief creators of Darksiders. Battle Chasers is actually a comic Joe created in 1998 that ran for nine issues but was never finished because he left the comic industry to become a video game designer. Now he's working on a turn based JRPG-style game with a new story in the same universe called Battle Chasers: Nightwar. It will be released in early October. The 2D animated intro and motion graphic cutscenes are being done by the same team that did the Castlevania Netflix series. I picked up the comic yesterday and I really dig the art style:

Oh, and I just found out that Joe Mad is planning to release issue 10 of the comic after Nightwar releases, as the start of a three issue story arc. He likes the idea of continuing to do 3-5 issue story arcs, but doesn't want to overpromise.
Issue 9 was released in 2001, how's that for a hiatus?

Yeah ive been keeping my eye on this too but honestly, the man has a terrible track record.
He didn't continue Battlechasers, Gekido sucked, he left Darksiders, he left Vigil games, Ultimates 3 was discontinued, his Savage Wolverine run was short etc
Its just a constant theme of unsteadiness and disappointment from this guy. I really like his work but he's all over the place.

I really like his work but he's all over the place. Well, I can't really blame him for Darksiders. Vigil Games shut down because THQ went under. The franchise only got resurrected by other ex-Vigil devs years later (They did bring him back on board to do some design work though). I can't say I'm not worried about him keeping his word on the additional comics though.

I don't blame him entirely. I'm sure there are many things that happen outside of his control.
I've just come to expect a certain level of disappointment regarding media with his name attached to it. Just like if Sean Bean is in something i expect his character to die.
