Talismen: Return of the Exile

Marine Corporal Ollie Steele is about to be executed by terrorists when he is inexplicably transported to the Plane of Imaginings, the land where dreams and nightmares hail from. A beautiful young woman, Astrina, finds Ollie and takes him back to the quiet village of Donnelly. Ollie is convinced he is hallucinating, but he is still stunned when the villagers recognize him as the first of three exiles prophesized to rescue them from Ba, the foul ruler of the Realm of Nightmares, and his shadowy first knight Scath. Talismen: Return of the Exile is the graphic novel that collects all four issues of the award-nominated webcomic by Barb Jacobs and Steven Philip Jones.
