Preview Royal Blood From Titan – Jodorowsky And Lui Make Medieval Power Struggles Hauntingly Violent

Royal Blood, a graphic novel coming in November from Titan Comics, is written by Alexander Jodorowsky, with art by Dongzi Lui. A stolen throne, a bid for political power? This story is definitely tapping into the George R.R. Martin zeitgeist right now, but looking at the preview below does greatly impress me with Lui's soft linework and dream-like evocation of medieval warfare.

Titan describe the book thus:

A shocking tale of betrayal, lust and warring kingdoms, from acclaimed creator Alexander Jodorowsky!

Wounded, betrayed and left for dead, King Alvar returns to his kingdom to regain his stolen throne.

Hungry for revenge, Alvar finds himself in the middle of a bloody political game for power. To keep his throne he must crush his enemies who would destroy him with their machinations.

But his own horrific appetites may prove his undoing…
