Bloodstar

Richard Corben's Bloodstar is a singular, lavishly painted graphic novel from 1976, published by The Morning Star Press. Adapting Robert E. Howard's "The Valley of the Worm," it presents a primal, prehistoric fantasy epic through Corben's uniquely muscular and visceral art style. Though it stands as a single, self-contained issue, its ambitious scope and stunning visual storytelling mark it as a landmark in independent comics and a key work in Corben's celebrated career.
