Oi Βάρβαροι [The Barbarians]

In the late 1970s, Greek publisher Kabanas Hellas brought together a powerhouse of American comic talent—including Gil Kane, John Romita, and Ernie Chan—for this eight-issue series. Oi Βάρβαροι offered a visceral, action-packed take on the sword-and-sorcery genre, channeling the era's gritty style through Kane's dynamic anatomy, Romita's storytelling polish, and Chan's moody inks. A distinctive artifact of the Greek comic market's international sourcing, it stands as a brief but vivid collaboration between top-tier U.S. artists and a European publisher.
