MICHAEL MOORCOCK's ELRIC COMIC BOOK.
WEIRD OF THE WHITE WOLF
ADVENTURES OF THE ETERNAL CHAMPION
RARE AND OUT OF PRINT! Impossible to find.
Michael Moorcock’s albino warrior has proved an enduring fantasy-fiction character, and even diluted by adaptation it’s easy to see why. He’s a striking and unique figure, with the weakness that he’s beset by illness and initially sustained only by a mixture of magic and drugs. The combination of frailty and regal poise is exceptionally illustrated It might be assumed that Thomas carries baggage with him from years of handling a diametrically opposed fantasy character, Conan, but his scripts here are faithful and dramatic, conveying Elric’s questioning and tormented nature.
A high fantasy character, Elric is a tall albino prince who possesses (or is possessed by) the rune-carved black sword Stormbringer which gives him strength, but at a price. He exists in a world where the eternal struggle between the forces of law and chaos leads to conflict and magical situations. This particular story is about his quest for the Dead Gods book, a powerful source of mystical knowledge.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
