Published 28 March 1991
From writer Pat Mills (Marshal Law) and artist Glenn Fabry (Preacher covers), comes a world of mists and magic and the ultimate Celtic warrior, Slaine! This classic tale of sword and sorcery, the epic saga that introduced 2000 AD readers and the comics world at large to a hero who makes Conan look like a boy scout, is finally available again, this time in a deluxe collectors' hardback edition. Exiled from his tribe, Slaine is forced to roam the land of Tir-Nan-Og with his dwarf, Ukko. Ahead of him lie terrifying ordeals that will require all of Slaine's famed warrior strength if he is to return victorious and claim his rightful place as King!

The Sea Devils have risen against Tir Nan Og, the Land of the Young, and Sláine, once the first High King of Ireland, must protect his tribe against this new tide of evil.

Leading the demons is Moloch, a hideous Formorian lord, bristling with swords and driven by a perverse hunger for human suffering. Fighting alongside his warrior wife Niamh, Sláine must drive back the demons or pay a price too terrible to comprehend...
