Press release

Valiant is proud to announce that X-O Manowar Vol. 1: By The Sword TPB, the first landmark volume of the new Valiant Universe, will be hitting stores everywhere on December 5th — with a special, introductory $9.99 price point!

The first collection of new material from publisher’s smash-hit "Summer of Valiant’ relaunch, X-O Manowar Vol. 1: By The Sword is written by New York Times best-selling author Robert Venditti (The Surrogates), illustrated by Eisner Award-winning artist Cary Nord (Conan), and collects the first four issues of the breakout series that has taken fans and critics by storm!

Aric of Dacia is a brash warrior and heir to the throne of the Visigoth people. He has lived his life under the heel of the Roman Empire, but now a far more terrible enemy has come to subjugate him. Taken from his home and family, Aric is enslaved aboard a starship belonging to a brutal race of alien colonizers known as The Vine. If he is to have any hope of escaping and returning to Earth, he will have to steal the Vine’s most powerful weapon — a sentient suit of indestructible armor — and become X-O Manowar!
