Volume 1 - 1st printing. "Soldier!" Collects X-O Manowar (2017 Valiant) #1-3.

Written by Matt Kindt. Art by Tomas Giorello. Cover by Lewis LaRosa.

WAR IS COMING! Born under the oppressive thumb of the Roman Empire, Aric of Dacia learned warfare at an early age. It was amid such violence that he was abducted by an alien race. Forced into slavery, he survived where others perished. His escape would come from bonding with a weapon of immeasurable power: the X-O Manowar armor. With it, he returned to Earth... only to find himself stranded in the modern day. But that was a lifetime ago. Now, far from home on a strange and primitive new world, Aric has begun a new life. Liberated from his past, he tends to his crops. Free from war. Free from violence. Free from the armor. But the machinery of death marches his way once again. Conscripted into an alien army and thrown into an unforgiving conflict, the fury inside him finds voice as he is forced to embrace the armor once more. With it, he will decimate armies, topple empires and incite interplanetary warfare as he rises from SOLDIER to GENERAL to EMPEROR to VISIGOTH. They wanted a weapon. He will give them war!

Join master storytellers Matt Kindt (Divinity) and Tomás Giorello (Bloodshot Reborn) right here for a stunning new beginning for Valiant's most enduring icon. Includes more than 30 pages of rarely seen artand extras!

Part 1 of 2, continued in Iron Man X-O Manowar Heavy Metal (1996) #1. There exists a barrier between two worlds...an unseen wall that separates two universes so blissfully unaware of one another. Now that barrier has been breached, and two titanic evils have joined together on a course which could spell disaster for existence as we know it. Mistress Crescendo and Baron Zemo have joined forces to resurrect the most powerful object created by man...the Cosmic Cube! It can convert thoughts into physical reality. Scattered chunks of the Cosmic Cube have lain beneath the depths of the ocean, its exact location unknown to all. But thanks to Mistress Crescendo, its location has been divined. Now there exists but one task--to retrieve these pieces of the Cube and reassemble them for both villains' uses. To that end, Baron Zemo has reassembled the Masters of Evil, a motley assembly of the most vile villains imaginable. He has also aligned himself with Arnim Zola, using the bio-geneticist's newly constructed living Isle of Exiles as his mobile base of operations. Can even the combined might of Iron Man and the Valiant universe's most technologically advanced weapon of destruction, X-O Manowar, stop the single biggest threat to both universes?

Introducing the first compendium collection of the chart-topping, award-winning series that relaunched the Valiant Universe! Go back to where the war began with this first, massive 800+ page volume in a value-priced paperback series collecting the complete adventures of Valiant's armored Visigoth, starting with the best-selling 2012 debut that the A.V. Club calls "stunning!"

Born under the oppressive thumb of the Roman Empire, Aric of Dacia learned warfare at an early age. It was amid such violence that he was abducted by an alien race known as The Vine. Forced into slavery, he survived where others perished. His escape would come from bonding with a weapon of immeasurable power: the X-O Manowar armor. With it, he returned to Earth...only to find himself stranded in the modern day. The Vine destroyed Aric's world. Now he will give them war.

Join New York Times best-selling writers Robert Venditti (Green Lantern) and Matt Kindt (UNITY, Grass Kings) and a cast of Valiant all-star artists - including Eisner Award winner Cary Nord (Conan, Star Wars), Doug Braithwaite (BLOODSHOT U.S.A.), Lee Garbett (Lucifer), Diego Bernard (NINJAK), and Trevor Hairsine (DIVINITY) - as they come together for one of the best-selling and longest-running superhero series of the modern era!
