In "Shadow of the Warlock" Part One, Karula faces off against the relentless Kurgh in a brutal clash that leaves her drained and unconscious, barely escaping death thanks to Dard’s swift intervention. With the imperial guard closing in, Rosalia and Rua are forced to flee for their lives, setting the stage for a desperate struggle in a world where magic and betrayal are as real as the sword in Karula’s hand. Written by Johji Manabe, Dana Lewis, and Toren Smith, with art and inks by Manabe, and lettering by Wayne Truman, this 1998 Dark Horse issue features a cover by Manabe that captures the intensity of the moment.
