The film eventually premiered in the United States on television on The CBS Late Movie on December 3, 1982. You get a lot of stuff happening in the deep woods, rather than the usual deserts and mountains that other entries in the genre seem to use as locations.

Henry Flint is very much 2000 AD A-list, and Greg Staples has been doing astonishing, movie poster-style covers for as long as I can remember. Ranulf tells the nuns that he survived Voltan's attack on his village and his people, which resulted in the brutal deaths of women and children. As the old man lies dying, another son, Hawk, enters the castle, and is bequeathed a great sword with a pommel shaped like a human hand which attaches itself to the mind stone.

At the behest of his mysterious sorceress ally, Hawk gathers comrades old and new- Gort the Giant, Crow the Elfin Bowman, warrior woman Bella and the dubious bard Wain- and sets out to finish the Wizards once and for all. In fact, the 1980 era movie is one of the influences that led uber-geek and Rebellion head honcho Sir Jason Kingsley to don actual shining armour and become a fascinating YouTube historian. In 2008 Ennis ended his five-year run on Punisher MAX to debut a new Marvel title, War Is Hell: The First Flight of the Phantom Eagle.

Garth Ennis of The Boys and Preacher will helm the series with Judge Dredd artist Henry Flint doing the illustrations. A brave warrior, the titular Hawk, assembles a small force of fighters to help him rid the land of a powerful and devious enemy.

But what awaits him, deep beneath the once-holy fortress of Dainsford, is a horror beyond his darkest nightmares. One thing I wanted to do was focus heavily on the characters, to continue the existing story rather than expand the world of Hawk into a typical fantasy world of warlords and power bases – I honestly think you can get that stuff anywhere, and one thing I didn’t want to do was lose the unique tone of the original.
