Elric

Few characters bridge the worlds of sword-and-sorcery quite like Elric, who made a striking Bronze Age entrance in Conan the Barbarian #14 in 1972, brought to life by the legendary creative team of Roy Thomas, Michael Moorcock, and Barry Smith. Born from Moorcock's own literary imagination and transplanted onto the comics page, this pale, brooding figure has haunted the medium for over five decades — a remarkable span stretching from 1972 all the way to 2026. His adventures have carried him through the pages of Conan the Barbarian and into Titan's dedicated Michael Moorcock Library - Elric volumes, where he shares the stage with unforgettable presences like Prince Gaynor the Damned and Zephra. For collectors who love their fantasy dark, literary, and steeped in genuine mythic weight, Elric is an essential figure — a rare comics character whose roots run as deep in prose legend as they do in four-color ink.
