Boingboing link to a cool graphic novel series based on Half-Life 2 called Apostasy: The Dawn Shall Rise, which uses in-game screenshots manipulated using Garry's mod:
The project is a comic based off the game Half-Life 2 by Valve Software. This game is quite simply the most amazingly engrossing story that I have ever seen in a video game. Needless to say, it got me inspired, but I had no idea what I could really do.
Along came G4's television show, The Screen Savers with a segment about a "Mod" for Half-Life 2 called Garry's Mod. The Mod allows you to place and pose ragdoll models from the game. Well... and obviously the idea from there just kind of fell into place.
The comic will be called Apostasy, and it will follow 3 characters through a story that happens around the same time as the game... in fact the story will interweave with the game story.
