Arak / Son of Thunder #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeArak, Son of Thunder #2 brings Roy Thomas and Ernie Colón's barbarian saga roaring into its second issue with a cover — inked by Dick Giordano — that wastes no time setting a ferocious tone. A massive, fanged beast looms over the action as Arak struggles to protect a terrified young woman in green, while armored warriors clash in the fiery background beneath the ominous title "The Devil Takes a Bride!" It's a vivid, kinetic piece of 1981 sword-and-sorcery storytelling that makes this full-length DC adventure genuinely hard to put down unread.

Arak is captured by the guards of a young girl, Corinna, he meets on a beach. She has him brought to her "father", Lord Hessa, who condemns Arak to his dungeon. While searching for a way to escape, Arak meets Malagigi, who claims to be great sorcerer for Carolus Magnus, King of the Franks. Arak escapes and flees the castle with Corinna, who claims to be a prisoner, as well. When Hessa pursues them, Arak learns Corinna is actually Hessa's mother; she mated with a demon for eternal youth. When Corinna's artificial youth begins to rapidly fade, the demon soon appears to reclaim her.
