Ray Collins (W), Juan Zanotto (A)
Collects Yor: The Hunter from the Future #1-4.

An elegantly drawn pulp adventure on par with other classic barbarian stories, Yor’s comic book saga has much richer detail and backstory than the legendary cult film, including deleted scenes and numerous twists and turns that will be all new for fans who know only of the movie! Throughout this classic, action-packed volume, Yor battles everything from dinosaurs to barbarians to flying saucers, all while protecting his lovely mate from peril. If you like your fantasy heroic—with a mighty dose of retro SF—then YOR’S THE MAN for you!
