Rand al'Thor

Rand al'Thor is the central hero of Robert Jordan's epic fantasy saga, adapted by Dynamite Entertainment. A young farmhand from the Two Rivers, he is drawn into a world-spanning conflict when mysterious forces pursue him, setting him on a path toward an extraordinary and dangerous destiny.

Few characters arrive in comics carrying the weight of an entire epic fantasy universe, but Rand al'Thor does exactly that — the central figure of Robert Jordan's beloved Wheel of Time saga, brought to the page by Chuck Dixon and Chase Conley for Dynamite Entertainment beginning in 2010. His comics journey unfolds across faithful adaptations of The Eye of the World and The Great Hunt, placing him shoulder-to-shoulder with an extraordinary ensemble that includes Mat Cauthon, Perrin Aybara, Egwene al'Vere, Moiraine Damodred, and al'Lan Mandragoran. Spanning over a decade of Modern Age publishing, Rand's 38 catalog appearances represent a rare and ambitious effort to translate one of fantasy literature's most ambitious narratives into sequential art form. For fans of the novels hungry to experience the saga in a new visual dimension — or for comics readers curious about what all the Wheel of Time devotion is about — this is a genuinely rewarding place to start.
