Product Description: Tir-Nan-Og-The Land of The Young. This violent world is home to warrior tribles who worship gods both benign and malevolent. The best of these warriors is a young member of the Sessair tribe
Slaine Mac Roth. Together with his repellent dwarf, Ukko, Slaine, wanders theland encountering all sorts of weird sinister creatures, including the death-worshiping Sloughs.
Zarjaz! ^ Slaine from the begining... and its pretty cool, before simon bisley, glen farby, greg staples and clint langley (a few among many others) left their artistic mark on the series, Mike McMahon and Massimo Belardinelli worked with writer Pat Mills to create one of 2000 A.D.'s greatest chracters since Joe Dredd!
The story of slaine takes place in the land of the young(ireland), where magic and life by the sword, ax, spear and sheild rule supreme. Join slaine and his sleaze little personal little pest and scribe Ukko as they battle the old horned god and other strange creatures, demons, witches and the like.
A Great Introduction into the world of Slaine ^ This book is a great introduction into the world of Slaine. Whether you are a fan of the comic series or into the role-playing game, this book is a great spring-board into the story. I am playing a Celtic based game of D20 Dungeons and Dragons using Slaine RPG and I bought this as a good read for people new to the campaign in order to quickly bring them up to speed. This book also has a useful map and glossary for newbies as well. The artwork is a little varied. Ukko becomes settled into his usual ugly self but although Slaine goes through 2 or 3 different drawings, it still has not settled on the later Slaine style that I know and love. Still, a good read and a worthy start to the whole saga.
Slaine - Irish Hero ^ One of my all time favorite 2000AD characters, while the artwork is not up to the Simon Bisley progs of later years, this well drawn B&W book gives you lots of insights into Ukko, Niamh, and The Lord Weird Slough Feg. The book also has a nice guide to Slaines world, with a map and a glossary of words and terms used throughout the book. Originally printed in 1983/1984. Progs 330-360
An excellent adition to any fan's collection ^ This graphic novel is an excellent read. The artwork is typically fantastic and the story flow likewise. Artistic styles vary between the two, and tastes will affect their appeal, but the overall product was exceptionally enjoyable.
