On June 28, 2017, Valiant Entertainment’s X-O Manowar Volume 1: Soldier trade paperback will arrive in stores for just $9.99. This new ongoing series is led by New York Times bestselling writer Matt Kindt (Divinity) and blockbuster artist Tomas Giorello (Bloodshot Reborn). On the same day, X-O Manowar #4 – the first issue of “General,” the series’ second arc – will also be debuting on shelves.

As part of a new trade paperback release program each of the series’ subsequent volumes in 2017 – including X-O Manowar Volume 2: General with artist Doug Braithwaite (Armor Hunters) in September, and X-O Manowar Volume 3: Emperor with artist Clayton Crain (4001 A.D.) in December – will be offered for $9.99 and arrive alongside a new arc or jumping-on point.

Each volume includes over 30 pages of rarely seen art, character designs, creator commentary, and bonus features. X-O Manowar’s first trade paperback kicks off with the complete collection of Soldier, as well as a special prelude once only available in Valiant’s 2017 Free Comic Book Day release, written by Matt Kindt with explosive artwork by Cafu (Rapture).

It all started Wednesday, June 28, as the X-O Manowar Volume 1: Soldier marches into comic shops alongside X-O Manowar #4. Head to your local comic book shop to enter the next phase of X-O Manowar’s galaxy-razing rise to power.
