Doug Herman

Born into the wild, creator-owned energy of Image Comics' early days, Doug Herman made his debut in Savage Dragon #10 in 1994, stepping onto a stage populated by the likes of Overlord, Rapture, and The Fiend — a roster that tells you everything about the high-octane, anything-goes world Erik Larsen was building. A Modern Age figure with a twelve-year presence across Savage Dragon and the Savage Dragon Archives, Herman is one of those characters who gives the book its texture, the kind of supporting presence that makes a universe feel genuinely lived-in. With only a handful of catalogued appearances he's a deep-cut discovery for the dedicated Larsen completist — exactly the sort of find that makes digging through back issues so rewarding.
