A NEW ERA AND A NEW ARIC! THE PILLAR OF THE VALIANT UNIVERSE RETURNS!

VALIANT BEYOND continues! And the ULTIMATE jumping-on point for the Valiant Universe would never be complete without the iconic Man of War! Aric of Dacia is back and more brutal than ever in this blockbuster quest!

For two thousand years, Aric of Dacia was at war in the stars. Now, with lifetimes of battle under his belt, Aric is back on Earth and hunting to reclaim the one prize that’s long eluded him… his honor! The Earth Aric finds is an untamed, mutated wasteland pocked with shining utopias that rise above the nuclear frontier. Danger waits beyond every rock and horizon, it’s the perfect spot for Aric to prove himself to be the inspiration for his quest… the ethereal being resting within Aric’s stellar armor. It’s this woman who’s traveled with Aric for millennia, and it’s this woman who’s challenged him to rediscover his honor.

This is X-O Manowar as the mysterious stranger in a strange land—even if the world he walks is his homeland. He’s the cosmic knight-errant, the righteous Visigoth answering to no master but honor itself. And all who’d terrorize the innocent, well… they answer to him.
