New Online Inception Comic Provides A Prequel Without Spoilers

Like many of you, I plan on spending the bulk of my time this weekend sitting in a cool, air-conditioned movie theater letting Christopher Nolan twist my mind like a pretzel. The highly anticipated film has gone to extreme lengths to keep the audiences out of the loop to inspire curiosity, but, as a sacrifice, the marketing hasn't told us a great deal about the plot or its characters. To make up for it they've gotten a bit creative...

Yahoo! has released a 34-page comic that functions as a prequel to the upcoming film. Featuring the characters played by Leonardo DiCaprio and Joseph Gordon-Levitt amongst others, the story appears to be spoiler-free and does a good job introducing the audience to some of the main players.

Head on over to Yahoo! to see the comic and download it to your computer as a PDF.
