Cormac Mac Art

Based on Robert E. Howard’s lost race tales, this Dark Horse miniseries from 1990 follows the barbarian warrior Cormac Mac Art through the twilight of the Viking age. Scripted by Dann and Roy Thomas with art by E. R. Cruz, the four-issue run adapts Howard’s prose into a grim, historically-tinged adventure of a wandering Gaul. It stands as a faithful, lesser-known entry in the Howard canon, bringing a different flavor of pulp heroism to the comics page.
