Atari Classics: Swordquest by Roy Thomas
For the first time ever, the classic "Swordquest" mini-comics -- created by comic book industry legends Roy Thomas, Gerry Conway, George Perez, Dick Giordano, and originally packaged with the Atari cartridges of their namesake -- are gloriously remastered and collected in a trade paperback for long-waiting fans to enjoy! Adventurous siblings Torr and Tarra, raised as thieves after the murder of their noble parents, set forth on a quest across four worlds to recover the Sword of Ultimate Sorcery... a prize that sets them one step closer to overthrowing King Tyrannus and his sinister ally, the wizard Konjuro. Can the twins gain mastery over the four elements and deliver justice to the despot? As an added bonus, this collection includes the "Yars' Revenge" mini-comic, introducing the heroic insect aliens that dare to defy the evil Qotile empire!
Gerry Conway began his professional comic book career in 1969, when DC Comics published his first work in its anthology The House of Secrets. He went on to co-create the characters Firestorm the Nuclear Man, Vixen, and Killer Croc for DC. Conway also worked for Marvel Comics, where he notably wrote The Night Gwen Stacy Died in The Amazing Spider-Man #121, as well as serving briefly as that company's editor-in-chief. His numerous writing credits include the first DC/Marvel crossover, Superman vs. Spider-Man.
In addition to comics, Conway has published the science fiction novels The Midnight Dancers and Mindship. He has also written for and/or produced such TV series as Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, Baywatch Nights, Silk Stalkings, Law & Order, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, and The Huntress and Batman: The Animated Series.
