The Horus Heresy

A grim science-fantasy epic from Games Workshop, The Horus Heresy (2015–present) adapts the foundational betrayal of the Imperium of Man into comics, expanding the mythic conflict through key battles and character moments. This single-issue launch, written by Dan Abnett with art by Neil Roberts, distills the sprawling novel series into a vivid, accessible entry point. Its significance lies in bringing the cataclysmic civil war that shapes the Warhammer 40,000 universe to a visual medium for longtime fans and newcomers alike.
