"The Gathering" is the first issue of the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons comics series set in the Forgotten Realms and published by DC Comics. It was written by Michael Fleisher and Jan Duursema, drawn by Duursema, and edited by Barbara Kesel.

It introduced the heroes of the series: the innocent half-elf mage Cybriana of Shadowdale (who would become Kyriani Agrivar); the fierce dwarf warrior Onyx the Invincible; the valiant centaur Timoth Eyesbright; and Vajra Valmeyjar, champion of the Arena of Blood; as well as the broken paladin Priam Agrivar, who would later be a hero of the related Forgotten Realms comics series.

This issue saw the heroes come together in the Selûne's Smile tavern in Waterdeep under the hospitality of Luna, just discovering the schemes of the terrible Imgig Zu. (Archive | Read more...)
