Tir-Nan-Og is a violent world, home to warring tribes who worship gods both benign and malevolent. One such tribe is the Sessair, brave warriors of enormous skill and the best of them is a young barbarian named Sláine Mac Roth. Sláine is, among other things, a master of the ‘warp-spasm’ channeling the mystical power of the Earth through his body to become a mighty, monstrous berserker!
In the first Definitive Edition you’ll meet a young, reckless and angry Sláine as he lives in exile, travelling with his repellent dwarf companion, Ukko. The series quickly introduces readers to the customs and wonders of his world and the horrors, like the Sloughs: sinister magicians who worship death and destruction and can raise armies of the dead to do their dark bidding…
Featuring the artwork of co-creator Angie Kincaid, as well as 2000 AD legends Massimo Belardinelli and Mick McMahon, Sláine changed 2000 AD forever. A pure swords-and-sorcery fantasy adventure set in a ruthless and cut-throat world, it was a sharp contrast to the sci-fi adventures which filled the rest of the Prog. One of 2000 AD‘s most beloved characters, you can take home his earliest adventures in ‘Definitive Edition’ form!
Sláine: The Definitive Edition Volume 1 is available for pre-order now, and will be on shelves in April 2025. |
