Publication history
Fantasy Hero Companion was edited by Rob Bell, with a cover by Larry Elmore, and was published by Hero Games/Iron Crown Enterprises in 1990 as a 144-page book.[1]
Shannon Appelcline noted that when Iron Crown Enterprises began publishing Hero System genre books, that "ICE never supported these individual genres — as Hero had rarely supported anything but Champions — with the only exceptions being Fantasy Hero Companion (1990) and Fantasy Hero Companion II (1992). However, they did begin publishing sourcebooks for the Hero System as a whole, which could be used with all genres."[2]:138
