Where it came from
Weird Worlds #9 was published by DC Comics in 1973 as part of the publisher's late-era anthology titles that leaned heavily into sword-and-sorcery themes. During this period, DC was attempting to capitalize on the massive success of Marvel's Conan the Barbarian by reviving classic pulp properties and introducing original fantasy heroes to reach a demographic interested in darker, visceral storytelling.
This issue features the work of artist DC Fontana and writer David Michelinie, centering on the ongoing adventures of Ironwolf. The design and aesthetic reflected the gritty, experimental tone common in 1970s bronze age comics, characterized by heavy ink work and elaborate world-building that departed from traditional superhero archetypes. While the series did not reach the longevity of DC's primary titles, it remains a notable example of the company's shift toward high-fantasy pulp aesthetics.
