Studio Ronin artist Christopher Shy ("Soul Stealer") had to work to figure out the right look for "Dead Space" character John Carver. Translating Visceral Games' world into comics was a challenge for the artist who worked with writer Ian Edginton to bridge the stories between "Dead Space 2" and the upcoming "Dead Space 3" in the February 5 release, "Dead Space: Liberation" from Titan Books.
From the official synopsis:
Following the events of the smash video game hit Dead Space 2, we follow Earthgov Sergeant John Carver whose wife and son are attacked by fanatics trying to liberate the Marker site where she works. Racing to solve the clues his wife left behind, Carver teams up with Ellie Langford, survivor of an earlier Necromorph outbreak on the Sprawl, and EarthGov Captain Robert Norton. Together they unlock deep secrets about the Markers in an epic adventure that will determine the fate of mankind.

Visceral Games wants to assure "Dead Space" fans that the second sequel in the horror/sci-fi series won't break with the addition of co-op. In fact, they're hoping to use it as a way of adding to the mood and horror of the series by presenting unsettling digressions via new character/Isaac's co-op buddy John Carver.
In this video with "Dead Space 3" story producer Chuck Beaver, we get a glimpse into Carver's mind and his rapidly progressing dementia which will have an impact on both the story and the gameplay for the upcoming release. Some of the details from the interview: Carver and troubled hero Isaac's first meeting is a "harsh" one and that Carver has a connection to both the mysterious markers as well as the villain of the current installment.
Also, over at the PlayStation Blog, the game's producer Steve Papoutsis makes the case for the new co-op...
