THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE (GRAPHIC NOVEL)


For the longest time, fans of the Highlander movie franchise have argued that there should only be one... the first, the original 1986 film starring Christopher Lambert, Sean Connery, and Clancy Brown.

But come November, this conviction will be challenged with the publication of a new graphic novel, Highlander: The Original Screenplay.

Published by Titan Comics (which brings us the much-lauded new adventures of Conan The Barbarian every month):
This lavishly illustrated volume presents the immortal saga of Connor MacLeod as it was first imagined - long before it became a cult-defining cinematic classic.

Returning to the story's roots, the graphic novel offers fans a rare chance to experience Gregory Widen’s original narrative vision in full, capturing the mythic scale, tragic romance, and operatic violence that made Highlander a cultural touchstone.
Highlander: The Original Screenplay is scheduled for release on November 17, and aims to present the legendary saga as you’ve never seen it before.

Below you can drool over several preview pages by the book's artist Szymon Kudranski, whose work might be familiar to fans of Marvel, DC, and Image comics:
