1st Issue Special was an anthology comic featuring a different character each issue. It was a try-out comic and each character was being given a chance to see how well they sold before possibly gaining their own series. Only two series were started from 1st Issue Special: Warlord and the revival of New Gods.
The lizard king Hyssa raids a small Mediterranean village, enslaving and killing dozens of people. One youth named Atlas survives the attack, but his family is not quite so lucky.
