Hercules

A fascinating piece of comics history, this Hercules made his catalog debut in 1972's The Steranko History of Comics #2, brought to life by the legendary C. C. Beck — the Golden Age master best known for his work on the mightiest of heroes. Surfacing in the Bronze Age and appearing across Gwandanaland Comics' celebrated reprint line, this character occupies a genuinely rare corner of the medium, sharing pages with the likes of Joe Hercules and Targeteer. With only a handful of appearances to his name, he's a collector's curiosity — the kind of figure that rewards the devoted digger who loves comics not just for the stories, but for the rich, layered history behind them.
