RICHARD CORBEN DEN 5 ELEMENTS GRAPHIC NOVEL FANTAGOR PRESS RARE OOP HEAVY METAL!



 


DEN 5 ELEMENTS GRAPHIC NOVEL

by 

World acclaimed artist Corben's masterpiece. This enchanting visual epic will be ranked among the great classics of fantasy.

It takes place in a world with Nar stones, like the ones that drove the Heavy Metal movie. They are a source of great power, coveted by evil men. Den becomes involved, to save his friends and the woman he loves, or so he thinks. Airships, deranged hermits, terrible beasts. Den, the hero, is a superhuman figure of rippling sinews. Kath, like all women of this world, is a powerful figure of superhuman bosom. The monsters are evil, the escapes are narrow, and the mad mage is a whirling nutjob. His direst threat is "The Nutcracker of Death." Good adventure comic, great Corben art, not for folks shy of skin on display. A classic, and still a favorite.

Den, a character adapted into the animated movie Heavy Metal, was one of the works that demonstrated the potential of comics as a medium not solely the province of kids. Corben's powerhouse draftsmanship, innovative color palette (the result of his painstaking hand-separation technique), and visceral, fleshy figures, sucks the reader in and never lets you go. Rich in homages to pulpsters Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard, and ribald, frank sensuality, Den is a timeless grown up fantasy epic. 

The saga of Den is a fantasy series about the adventures of a young underweight man who travels to Neverwhere, a universe taking inspirational nods from Robert E. Howard's Hyborian Age, Edgar Rice Burroughs's Barsoom and H. P. Lovecraft's horror dimensions. There, the man becomes an enormously endowed muscled barbarian warrior who has sexy adventures in a world of outrageous dangers, hideous monsters, and buxom women who lustfully throw themselves at him.
