X-O MANOAWESOME

Valiant Comics Returns! And one of the first titles to be relaunched is X-O MANOWAR, with killer art by CARY NORD. If you were reading CONAN the past 10 years, you know the dude kicks ass.

The new X-O Manwar will be:

"Born into battle and raised under the oppressive thumb of the Roman Empire, Aric of Dacia is a beloved figure among his men and a leader of the Visigoth people. But when he's taken prisoner after a brutal encounter with an alien strike force, he must capture the X-O Manowar armor - the most powerful weapon in the universe - if he's to save his family and return to his people. But when he arrives he finds 1,600 years have passed and the most primitive man on Earth - a man out of time - now wields a weapon capable of incalculable destruction."

Sweet.

And check out that rad cover by ESAD RIBIC!! Holy crap! I want a huge poster, big headphones, and Speed Metal blasting into my ears! \m/

X-O Manowar #1 will be on sale May 2, 2012.
