One which will determine the uncertain future of his world.Written and illustrated by Howard Chaykin this volume features the original epic tale in its entirety, and includes the original 1979 introduction by Michael Moorcock, an all-new foreword by acclaimed writer Cullen Bunn (Uncanny X-Men, Deadpool), and an in-depth essay by Moorcock historian John Davey."This is a classic romp from two masters of the form, painted with all the verve of Chaykin in his prime and a treat for fantasists and flowers of exotic, erotic fantasy." - Comics Review"It still ranks as a highlight of Chaykin's career. It is beautifully composed, drawing on the influences that Moorcock admired so much." - The Slings and Arrows
