Wildstorm Comics has had some success with a turning a number of game-based franchises into comics. Now Newsarama is reporting that Wildstorm is planning to release a comic book series based on Blizzard's Starcraft game series.

The details are few at this point but the report states that Simon Furman (best known for his Transformers comic book work) will write the comic and will "introduce a new team of mercenaries into the Starcraft universe." The story will apparently lead into the storyline for Blizzard's own RTS sequel StarCraft 2. There's no word on when the series will be released. The story also states that Wildstorm plans to release a new World of Warcraft comic book series later this year. Their regular monthly series based on the MMO has been a sales hit for Wildstorm.
