Description: For centuries, the sacred X-O Manowar has stood unrivaled as the universe's most powerful weapon. Today, will it equal Earth's doom? An unthinkable alien race known only as The Torment has come to our world in search of the armor's secrets. Now, they stand opposed by Aric of Dacia -- former slave, noble warrior, resolute king, and current master of the armor's near-limitless capabilities. But are one man...and one weapon...enough to repel a force capable of leveling a thousand civilizations? A whole new era for X-O Manowar begins here...and you won't believe what's coming next!
