A MassiveMultiplayerCrossover event published by Creator/DynamiteComics in 2016 featuring licensed properties under their print including Franchise/{{Tarzan}}, Literature/JohnCarterOfMars, ComicBook/RedSonja and the main characters in ''TableTopGame/{{Pathfinder}}''. It features the exploits of four adventurers from Golarion - Valeros, the fighter; Seoni, the mage; Kyra, the cleric and Merisiel, the rogue - who are plucked from their world to a mysterious prison dimension called the Worldscape, where the greatest warriors of other worlds such as Earth/Hyboria and Barsoom are drawn into an endless struggle for the entertainment of an immortal tyrant. As the four Pathfinders attempt to survive and reunite amid this deadly backdrop, their travels and machinations bring them into contact with other heroes, villains, and monsters plucked from beyond time and space. In time, the heroes become embroiled in a conflict for two powerful magical artifacts—the Scepter and the Crown—that promise control over the Worldscape—and perhaps also escape from it. Gathering both artifacts and punching a hole back to their home worlds will require teamwork and alliance with a rag-tag group of the greatest warriors of three worlds.

A MassiveMultiplayerCrossover event published by Creator/DynamiteComics in 2016 featuring licensed properties under their print including Franchise/Tarzan, Literature/JohnCarterOfMars, ComicBook/RedSonja and the main characters in ''TableTopGame/{{Pathfinder}}''. It features the exploits of four adventurers from Golarion - Valeros, the fighter; Seoni, the mage; Kyra, the cleric and Merisiel, the rogue - who are plucked from their world to a mysterious prison dimension called the Worldscape, where the greatest warriors of other worlds such as Earth/Hyboria and Barsoom are drawn into an endless struggle for the entertainment of an immortal tyrant. As the four Pathfinders attempt to survive and reunite amid this deadly backdrop, their travels and machinations bring them into contact with other heroes, villains, and monsters plucked from beyond time and space. In time, the heroes become embroiled in a conflict for two powerful magical artifacts—the Scepter and the Crown—that promise control over the Worldscape—and perhaps also escape from it. Gathering both artifacts and punching a hole back to their home worlds will require teamwork and alliance with a rag-tag group of the greatest warriors of three worlds.

The series is written by Erik Mona and the art by Jonathan Lau with alternate covers provided by Reilly Brown, Ben Caldwell, Sean Izaakse, and Tom Mandrake. Its scheduled to run for 6 issues and each chapter contains stats for Earth and Barsoom characters.
