Talismen: Return of the Exile, Volume 1

Marine Corporal Ollie Steele is captured and about to be executed by terrorists when he is inexplicably transported to the Plane of Imaginings, the land where dreams and nightmares hail from. A beautiful young woman, Astrina, finds Ollie and takes him back to the quiet village of Donnelly.
