Lann

Frank Thorne’s Lann is a standalone 1991 graphic novel from Fantagraphics, a lushly painted fantasy epic that follows the fierce, red-haired warrior woman of the title through a world of barbaric splendor and supernatural menace. Written and illustrated entirely by Thorne—best known for his iconic work on Red Sonja and The Rook—the book showcases his signature blend of heroic adventure, detailed linework, and unabashed sensuality. Though only a single issue, it stands as a quintessential example of Thorne’s mature, personal vision, capturing the raw energy of 1970s-80s sword-and-sorcery comics with a painterly, European-influenced flair.
