Enter the lost world of the Warlord, in this omnibus collection of legendary writer and artist Mike Grell’s revered sword-and-sorcery epic!

In 1975, DC made one of its most notable expansions beyond the world of superheroes with the introduction of the Warlord—a new fantasy hero created by writer and artist Mike Grell, later distinguished for his character-redefining work Green Arrow: The Longbow Hunters.

Lt. Colonel Travis Morgan of the United States Air Force is attacked while on a reconnaissance mission over Russia. Fleeing toward the arctic circle, he is forced to abandon his dying aircraft over the Yukon—and parachutes through a swirling mist into the strange and unrecognizable land of Skartaris!

In Warlord by Mike Grell Omnibus Vol. 1, readers can journey to Skartaris and read the very first appearance of Grell’s famous creation, along with the first 50 issues of the Warlord series, which stands as one of the most influential comics runs of its era.

This volume collects 1st Issue Special #8, Warlord #1-50, and Amazing World of DC Comics #12.
Artist Michael Jon Grell quickly made a name for himself in comics by tackling one of its most difficult assignments—the seemingly infinite universe of the Legion of Super-Heroes. From there, Grell joined Dennis O'Neil for a well-received Green Lantern and Green Arrow revival and might have become a regular contributor to the Batman office if his creation Warlord had not taken off to become DC's most successful fantasy title ever. Grell (whose other works of note include Jon Sable, Freelance, Starslayer, and Green Arrow) still writes the occasional Batman tale. View titles by Mike Grell
