Sláine #5

Published by Dantes Verlag in 2018, this German-language collection subtitled Der König brings Pat Mills and Mike Collins's Celtic warrior saga to life with a Glenn Fabry cover that commands immediate attention. Sláine himself dominates the scene — muscle-bound, roaring with battle fury as he plunges downward toward a hulking, blue-skinned creature clutching a golden artifact, while a wild-haired woman crouches defensively in the foreground. It's a visceral, painterly image that captures the mythic brutality at the heart of "Danus Ring" and makes a strong case for why Sláine endures as one of comics' most compelling barbarian heroes.
