The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is a comic book miniseries by Shotaro Ishinomori based on A Link to the Past . It appeared in Nintendo Power beginning in January 1992 and ran for 12 issues, ending in December 1992. It was later published as a graphic novel in 1993.

Many portions of the game were omitted, and several new story segments were added to preserve the elements of surprise and add to the dramatic flow. Several new characters are introduced, such as Roam, Epheremelda, the Librarian of Kakariko, and an unnamed boy who is friends with Sahasrahla. In this alternate version of the events in A Link to the Past, Link is beckoned telepathically by Princess Zelda to rescue her from Agahnim's clutches, and eventually from Turtle Rock in the Dark World.
