The first San Diego Comic-Con 2018 Funko Exclusive is from Heavy Metal Magazine at the show, their character Taarna.
Taarna is a character created by Daniel Goldberg and Len Blum for the Heavy Metal magazine and movie, inspired by Moebius‘ Arzach stories.
The Loc-Nar, now the size of a giant meteor, crashes into a volcano on an unnamed world, changing a tribe of human outcasts into mutated barbarians who ravage a peaceful city. The elders desperately try to summon the last of a warrior race, the Taarakians. Taarna, a strong, beautiful, and mute Taarakian warrior maiden, arrives too late to stop the massacre and resolves to avenge the city. Her search leads to the barbarians’ stronghold, where she is captured, stripped of her clothing, tortured, and left for dead. With the help of her Taarakian mount, she escapes, places her outfit back on, and confronts the barbarian leader. Though wounded, she defeats him. With Taarna readying her final attack on the Loc-Nar, it tells her not to sacrifice herself as she cannot destroy it. She does not relent, and her self-sacrifice destroys the Loc-Nar.
The character has recently been revived by Heavy Metal in a new series by Alex De Campi and Esau Escorzi. And now, also, a Funko Pop… find it at their booth during the show.
