Race of Scorpions

In 1990, Dark Horse published this two-issue comic series by writer/artist Leo Durañona, a self-contained tale of a lone warrior navigating a harsh, post-apocalyptic landscape. The story follows a mysterious figure known only as the Scorpion, whose path crosses with a desperate community threatened by a brutal warlord. Durañona's stark, detailed art and sparse storytelling create a grim, atmospheric world that stands as a concise, early example of Dark Horse's willingness to publish creator-driven genre work.
