Description
HISTORY IS (RE)WRITTEN BY THE VICTORS! Caught in the spell cast by malevolent magicians seeking total control over the world, Thundarr and his stalwart companions Ariel and Ookla find themselves hurled into the past — all the way back to the long-distant year of 1994, the time of the Great Cataclysm! Witnessing the wizards’ nefarious presence at this dawn of destruction, Thundarr instinctively attacks. But it is Ariel who draws first blood against the cabal of sorcerers, delivering a devastating blast of magical power — much to the shock of her barbarian friends. The grim truth behind her abilities is about to be revealed — but even with a 2,000-year head start, it may be too late to save their future selves from doom in Sabian’s arena! Prophetic tale-spinners JASON AARON and KEWBER BAAL amp up the energy in their page-turning new take on the classic animated series with Thundarr the Barbarian #3 — featuring cosmically captivating covers from MICHAEL CHO, FRANCESCO MATTINA, BJORN BARENDS, and JOSEPH MICHAEL LINSNER!
