Volume 1 - 1st printing. Collects Record of Lodoss War: Chronicles of the Heroic Knight (2000) #1-5. Written by Ryo Mizuno. Art by Masato Natsumoto. Record of Lodoss War is heroic fantasy at its finest, set in a timeless world of knights and elves, gods and witches, that has led to some of the most popular series of animated films and TV series, comics and graphic novels of all time. Chronicles of the Heroic Knight introduces Spark, the young knight-in-training who serves and waits for the day that his name will appear on the list of knights. Although he dreams of being a glorious hero in the wars of Lodoss, he fails in his first assignment from the king, guarding the powerful, magical Crystal Ball of Souls. It is stolen from under his very nose by Dark Elves in the service of the evil Vagnado, the sorceror of Marmo. The beloved Grey Witch characters Deedlit the Elf and Parn the Knight also return to guide and help Spark, but the focus of this series is the new heroes who join Spark in his quest to retrieve the Crystal Ball: Leif, the beautiful half-elf warrior, the brave Gallac, who is also known as the Blue Shooting Star, and the beautiful leather-clad adventuress Laina. This comic series is as exciting as the Heroic Knight anime series, but tells a very different story, richer and with deeper character development. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 8-in., 178 pages, B&W. Cover price $15.95.
