The Power Fantasy

After an era of great peace, the thirst for power rises anew desperate to be quenched with a tide of blood and death.War looms once more in this grim and gritty fantasy tale.With the world on the line, four heroes: Faras, Haggarth, Omir, and Masdin, begin their dire quest for the glimmer of hope known as 'The One' - the legendary sword that lies waiting for the storm of battle.

To say that Oni Press' is just another Weird Western (a combination of Western and another literary genre, usually, occult, horror or fantasy) is like saying Image Comics' is just another zombie comic book. Writer Cullen Bunn and artist Brian Hurtt have together created a modern book classic that keeps getting better each month. It is unpredictable, with each installment of the series giving us situations that are very familiar yet strikingly different, with enough inventiveness and coolness driven by highly kinetic art from a unique perspective that keeps us waiting for--and expecting--more. The first issue of this series was also a free giveaway for Free Comic Book Day 2010 last May 1, 2010. The regular issue #1 reprints the same interiors as the FCBD issue and was released alongside issue #2 on July 14, 2010. All 13 issues thus far published are included in this update, and all are HQ Minutemen scans.
