Slaine the Barbarian
I always favoured Slaine over Conan, probably because Slaine was a thoroughly British hero but also because the stories are better written and the art of Belardinelli, McMahon, Fabry and Bisley is far superior to the artwork of artists working on the American Conan.Warrior's Dawn is an absolute joy, the stories are compelling and of great interest they stirred in me moments of nostalgic bliss, and the illustrations by McMahon are genius.

The 1st Slaine is good but is hampered whilst it tries to find its way , but you have to start here to appreciate the amazing journey in the other books. Art work is from ok to good as is the story, but the characters are built here ready for the other books where this becomes a master piece of Barbarian Celtic story telling.

McMahon's the star!!!
Five stars for reproducing the GLORIOUS scratchy line work of Mike McMahon. He really puts the other artists to shame. His Slaine is big and ugly - you can practically smell him. And the cover image - I could stare at it for days.

Amazing work, average reproduction
It's fantastic to get this story in collected form again. Unfortunately the publisher has not matched the format of the book to the original artwork so the pages have been shrunk, leaving white bars at the header and footer. My print is also very grey where there should be a marked contrast between black and white areas (for the pages drawn by Mike McMahon).Still, this is the cheapest and most convenient way to revist this amazing story and artwork.
