There is a new official Witcher comic on the shelves. Dark Horse Comics, working together with CD PROJEKT RED, released The Witcher Volume 11: Blood Stone as a trade paperback on October 27, 2026. It is a standalone monster hunt for Geralt of Rivia, and this time the trail leads deep underground into old dwarven mines.
What Blood Stone is about
According to Dark Horse’s description, treasure hunters have been flocking to a set of ancient dwarven mines, and some of them are not coming back. Local legend blames a horned beast. Geralt takes the job, but things get complicated when a violent event hits a nearby town at the same time as a promise of riches appears. He has to work out whether the two are connected, while the townsfolk slide further into greed and obsession and a tragedy looms.
Greedy prospectors, dwarven tunnels and a monster that may or may not be the real problem: it is a very familiar Witcher setup, much like the best contracts in the games. If you like the dwarven side of the world, our pages on Zoltan Chivay, the Mahakaman Sihil and the dwarven town of Vergen in Bring It On: Vergen are good places to keep digging.

Some of the names will be familiar to Witcher comic readers. Roman Titov previously coloured CD PROJEKT RED’s Cyberpunk 2077: Big City Dreams, and Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou lettered the earlier Dark Horse Witcher story The Bear and the Butterfly. Dark Horse first revealed Blood Stone back in September 2025.
Where the comics fit
The Dark Horse comics are official, licensed stories made with CD PROJEKT RED, but they are side adventures rather than part of Andrzej Sapkowski’s novels. If you want the main saga, start with our Witcher books reading guide, and keep an eye on Sapkowski’s next Witcher book, which he hopes to finish by the end of 2027. For more Geralt in the meantime, The Witcher 3’s third expansion Songs of the Past arrives in 2027.
