This graphic novel series brings The Magicians universe into comic book form. The single issues adapt portions of the original story, while Alice’s Story retells events from the perspective of Alice Quinn, one of the trilogy’s central characters. The comics were published by Archaia, an imprint of BOOM! Studios.

The visual format gives readers a different way to experience Brakebills and Fillory. Fans of the novels and the TV show will recognize familiar scenes, though the comics add their own visual interpretation of Grossman’s magical world.
