Ender’s Game Summarized in Comic Form, Sort of

Recommended Videos

This MS-Paint style comic adaptation of Orson Scott Card’s landmark novel Ender’s Game has it all: There’s a kid, some video game thing, tragic violence, very important symbolism, and then a big twist at the end. Now, I’ll admit that I have a very limited understanding of the book, but the comic actually mirrors what I know of it pretty closely. Sort of like an M. Night Shyamalan version of The Last Starfighter.

Whoops, there goes my geek-cred.

Anyway, if you’re a fan, or just a curious bystander, read the whole comic after the break but be warned: There be spoilers ahead.
