About the Book

Robinson Edgar awakes one morning to find himself a strange fantasy world with no clear memory of how he got there, or even who he is. Set upon by an ogreish press gang, he soon finds himself fighting for his life and caught between two warring factions who want to take over the world. And while they're at it, they'd like nothing better than to kill Rob and his new-found friends, Brenna, Finella, and Bill, the wise-cracking griffon. Can Rob elude the bad guys long enough to discover his true identity, remember his quest, and return to his own world? Or will he fall victim to the evil Lord Ugo Redhand, the faerie War Master, Kalil, or Shandara, the Witch Queen?The Twilight Empire is a rollicking graphic novel filled with action, adventure, and a delightful cast of characters. It was enjoyed by thousands of fantasy and gaming enthusiasts worldwide, every month, when it appeared in Dragon (the official Dungeons & Dragons magazine) in the early 1990s. Now, for the first time ever, The Twilight Empire: Robinson's War is available complete and uncut, in a handsome and affordable black-and-white facsimile edition. The book also includes a behind-the-scenes insights from the author, Stephen D. Sullivan (Dragonlance), the artist, John Hebert (X-Men Adventures), and a special Introduction by Bill Willingham, the award-winning writer of the comic book Fables.Sought after by fans for nearly two decades, this Twilight Empire graphic novel is an event not to be missed!BLURBS FOR THE TWILIGHT EMPIREHandsome heroes and white-hot warriorettes; brutish baddies and menacing monsters; colorful combat and romantic romps; multi-dimensional mischief and shape-shifting shenanigans ... plus a formidable yet uber-lovable GWA (griffon with attitude) named Bill! The characters are archetypal and the themes tried-and-true, but Sullivan and company toss in enough quirky twists to create something at once timeless and brand new. Fifty deftly wrought, three-page gems that, together, tell a tale to be treasured.-Paul McComas, author Unforgettable and Planet of the DatesThe re-release of Twilight Empire brings back my old friends ... and a wicked, wild smile to my face. This was the first part of Dragon magazine that I turned to "back in the day," and finding the strips again was like reuniting with long-lost but never forgotten pals. It was the best part of the magazine ... the fun and adventure, the escape that I craved and treasured. Thanks, Stephen and John, for tugging them out into the literary fray again.-Jean Rabe, USA Today bestselling fantasy authorI hate to make Steve and John feel old, but I was fifteen when The Twilight Empire comic first appeared in Dragon Magazine #156, opening with the phrase "Surely this is madness" over darkness. Before the first page spread was complete, our amnesiac hero was being dangled over a cliff by a brute while while nasty little minions tossed his possessions to the wind. I eagerly flipped through each new issue to enjoy Rob's adventures as he learned about the strange world he found himself in and, eventually, his own identity. Action, mystery, magic, friendship and family are explored in this tale and I'm very happy to see it brought back so new readers can uncover the secrets of Robinson's War!-Jamie Chambers, award-winning game designer and President of Fire Signal StudiosLong after I'd given up on every other part of Dragon Magazine, I still bought it every month to get the Twilight Empire pages in the back -- it was just that good. It's nice to finally see it collected in full, far too many years after it should have been. Better late than never!-Bill Willingham, New York Times Bestselling writer of Fables
