About the series
In 1996, Topps Comics released this single-issue prestige project adapting Michael Moorcock's Elric saga, with Neil Gaiman and P. Craig Russell collaborating on the script and Russell providing the lush, intricate artwork. The story distills the tragic albino prince's entire life into a condensed, poetic narrative, framed as a final conversation between Elric and his demonic sword Stormbringer. Russell's painterly style and Gaiman's lyrical dialogue make this a standout, visually immersive entry in the Elric canon, capturing the melancholy and dark fantasy of Moorcock's creation in a single, self-contained gem.
