Are you ready for some real fantasy football? Boom! Studios has announced it will be bringing the Matt Forbeck penned Blood Bowl to a brand new miniseries.  Blood Bowl: Killer Contract #1 will feature a smack down between the Bad Bay Hackers and the Orcland Raiders as only artist Lads Helloven can bring it.

“I love games, I love BLOOD BOWL, and I love comics,” said Matt Forbeck, writer of BLOOD BOWL: KILLER CONTRACT. “Working with BOOM! on this has been a dream: a funny, twisted, violent dream about humans, ogres, and orcs fighting over a prized pigskin decorated with sharp and shiny spikes.”

I tried to think of something witty to say, but jokes about orcs, elves and dwarves fighting it out on a football field pretty much write themselves. Blood Bowl #1 arrives in April with two regular covers and an 1-in-10 retailer incentive variant.
