Record of Lodoss War: The Grey Witch

Based on the classic Japanese fantasy novels and role-playing game, this 22-issue series from Central Park Media adapts the epic quest of a young warrior and his companions as they battle the forces of a malevolent Grey Witch on the cursed island of Lodoss. Written primarily by Laura Jackson, Yoko Kobayashi, and original creator Ryu Mizuno, with art by Yoshihiko Ochi, the comic brings the beloved sword-and-sorcery world to a Western audience in the late '90s. It’s a faithful, visually rich translation of a foundational fantasy property that helped define the look and feel of Japanese tabletop-inspired storytelling.
