2000 AD to Release Sláine: The Horned God HC to US Markets in May 2011

0

For the longest time, it was only possible to buy 2000 AD collections as expensive imports from the UK. Thankfully, last year, 2000 AD struck a US distribution deal for their trades and GNs. The latest collection to make it to US shores is the hardcover of Sláine: The Horned God, by Pat Mills and Simon Bisley. I’m a huge Sláine fan, and The Horned Gos is one of the series’ best story arcs. I look forward to picking up this fantastic looking tome. Don’t miss out!

‘SLÁINE WAS ONE OF MY FAVOURITES.’ – DUNCAN JONES
SLÁINE: THE HORNED GOD (HARDBACK ED.) - AVAILABLE TO BUY FROM MAY 2011

It is a dark time for the tribes of Danu, the Earth Goddess. Evil druids led by Lord Weird Slough Feg and their hideous Fomorian sea demon allies are poisoning the lands with their vile magic. But the mighty barbarian Sláine has had enough of this dark tyranny and, with the help of Danu, sets out to unite the four kings of Tir-Nan-Og, employing their mystical weapons to purge his lands forever!

This fabulous-looking premium hardback edition of an epic 2000 AD sword and sorcery tale, is brought to you by the hit creative team of comics’ legend Pat Mills (Nemesis the Warlock, Marshal Law) and world-renowned artist Simon Bisley (Lobo, Batman/Judge Dredd: Judgement on Gotham).

2000 AD® is Britain’s longest running and most celebrated sci-fi comic, which has been at the cutting edge of contemporary pop culture since 1977. The 32 page, weekly anthology is a multi-award winning cocktail of explosive sci-fi and fantasy, infused with a mean streak of irony and wry black humour.

Giving birth to iconic characters such as Judge Dredd, Halo Jones, Strontium Dog and Rogue Trooper, the imaginative blend of hard-hitting stories and eye-popping art have made 2000 AD essential reading for its legion of fiercely loyal fans for more than 30 years – launching the careers of some of the top names in global comics, including Alan Moore, Mark Millar, Grant Morrison, Brian Bolland, Steve Dillon, Jock, and Peter Milligan.

2000 AD, its monthly sister publication The Judge Dredd Megazine, and its extensive range of collected graphic novels are available to buy online, from all major magazine retailers across the UK and Europe and from all good comic stores across the US.
