Mal'opus opens pre-orders for "The Little Witch" comic, exploring Ciri's childhood in CD Projekt RED's world

A Glimpse into a Whimsical Witcher Childhood: Mal'opus Opens Pre-Orders for "The Little Witch" Comic

Fans of CD Projekt RED's iconic Witcher universe are in for a treat! Ukrainian publisher Mal'opus has announced the opening of pre-orders for "The Little Witch," a delightful comic that offers a fresh perspective on the beloved world, focusing on a young Ciri.

A New Chapter for Ciri and Geralt

This standalone collection delves into short stories that reimagine the familiar grim and gritty Witcher realm with a surprisingly lighthearted touch. At its core, "The Little Witch" explores the nuanced journey of Geralt as he endeavors to raise a young Ciri, all while imparting the essential, often peculiar, lessons of a witcher's life. He isn't alone in this endeavor; the presence of Yennefer, Vesemir, and other cherished characters adds a warm, familial dynamic to the narrative.

Heartwarming Moments and Monster Mishaps

The comic promises readers an immersion into tender domestic scenes, rigorous training sessions at Kaer Morhen, and encounters with monsters that, in this context, often feel more amusing than truly menacing. The official description beautifully captures the essence:

These magical tales of an unconventional family, featuring Geralt and Ciri's closest friends, will make you laugh, sigh, and realize that raising a little witch isn't all that different from raising any other child.

Details for Collectors and Fans

"The Little Witch" comic is presented in a compact 21x16 cm format, boasting a robust hardcover for lasting appeal. The book contains 80 pages of enchanting stories and vibrant artwork. Currently, pre-orders are available for ₴270, with the price set to increase to ₴300 once the pre-order period concludes. The anticipated release is scheduled for spring 2026, offering ample time for eager fans to secure their copy.

Mal'opus's Growing Catalog of Collectibles

This new comic joins Mal'opus's expanding roster of exciting pre-order opportunities. The publisher is simultaneously offering pre-orders for several other highly anticipated artbooks and books. Among these are an artbook for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, a special collector's edition dedicated to S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, and the Ukrainian version of "Play Nice," a book chronicling the history of Blizzard Entertainment. This initiative underscores Mal'opus's commitment to bringing high-quality, niche content to the Ukrainian market.
