[edit] Plot
It is inspired from Highlander, the franchise about Immortals battling each other throughout history. The comic book centers around Connor MacLeod's search for the sword of his mentor Juan Sanchez Villa-Lobos Ramirez, after losing it in the ocean to The Kurgan by accident. He eventually retrieves the sword just before the events of the first Highlander film.
[edit] Timeline issues
As with the films and series, this mini-series causes some timeline inconsistencies with the Highlander films; namely with flashbacks depicting Connor with the sword in his possession during the time period in the comic book that he has lost it, as well as some of the official novels. Additionally, Sunda Kastagir appears with Connor MacLeod in the 1966 "present day" portions of the story-arc, when the first Highlander movie clearly indicated that in 1985 they had not seen each other in over a century.
