Aric of Dacia, a 4th century Visigoth armed with the
universe's most powerful weapon, is all that stands between the Earth and
all-out annihilation at the hands of the alien race that abducted him from his
own time. Now, the day of Aric's reckoning has finally come. As his Visigoth
forefathers sacked Rome, Aric will take the battle directly to his oppressors
on the Vine homeworld of Loam. He will decimate their armies, he will level
their cities – and he will not stop until the whole of their empire is reduced
to ash. This is PLANET DEATH!
"X-O Manowar is a soldier at heart, and he knows from
his years on the battlefield that the best defense is a powerful offense,"
said Executive Editor Warren Simons. "The only chance he has to protect
the fate of humanity is to take the battle directly to the Vine's doorstep and
stop their alien empire from spreading further."
