“Uther The Half Dead King”

About this Collection

This collected edition brings together the complete story arc of the 1994 series, which reimagines the Arthurian legend through the tragic figure of Uther Pendragon. The narrative follows Uther's desperate and morally complex quest to secure his legacy, blending dark fantasy with historical drama. Created by writer Jean-Luc Istin and artist Stéphane Duval, the volume presents a gritty, visually striking take on the king's rise and fall, originally published in French and translated for NBM's English-language release.

In "Uther The Half Dead King," Dan Abnett crafts a haunting, character-driven tale of legacy and failure, following the man whose name would eclipse his deeds. Bo Hampton’s striking art—both in story and on the cover—brings a grim, mythic weight to Uther’s struggle to live up to prophecy, even as he grapples with his own mortality and the shadow of the legend he helped create.
