The plots are word-to-word adaptations of the 6 original Elric novels. The weak albino emperor of a decadent empire, who has to subsist on drugs and the soul-drinking blade Stormbringer.The entire saga is about Elric looking for "answers" and the price to pay for these "answers" just keeps rising, a perfect tragic character. The artwork is intense,psychedelic,and captures the depraved decadence of Moorcock's work perfectly but it doesn't feel cluttered or confusing,for most part.Įven though a lot of talented artists worked on the series, Elric more or less has an uniform look. The comic adaptations of the Elric series,published by First Comics during the 80's is a staple of fantasy comics.
