Joe Manganiello Wants D&D Icons To Honor The Creator Of Dungeons & Dragons

Joe Manganiello Wants D&D Icons To Honor The Creator Of Dungeons & Dragons https://ift.tt/3BEqbVQ Dungeons & Dragons has attracted several of the greatest storytellers of all time to the Forgotten Realms, and at Gen Con, Wizards of the Coast announced a new product line called D&D Icons to bring together creators to develop new stories for the tabletop franchise.

Gen V not only features one of the bloodiest opening sequences in any show that I can remember, but it's also much more creative with its use of graphic violence and other body-horror-style moments thanks to its protagonists.

Warning: The following contains spoilers for Prime Video's Gen V through Episode 5 of Season 1. If you haven't caught up with the series yet, you may want to wait until you do.
