Outlanders #17

Johji Manabe's cover for this 1990 Dark Horse release brings together a striking ensemble — a young warrior in golden armor, a green-haired horned woman in striking battle attire, a silver-haired female fighter, and a hulking armored brute — all posed with a quiet confidence that hints at the sci-fi fantasy adventures within. At a generous 40 pages with no ads, Book XVII of Outlanders offers exceptional value for fans of Manabe's richly detailed manga-style artwork. If you've been following this series, this issue's cover alone makes a compelling case to keep reading.
