Professor Victor Hicks

Professor Victor Hicks made his entrance in the pages of Nathan Never #18 in 1992, a creation of Michele Medda and Nicola Mari for Sergio Bonelli Editore's acclaimed Italian sci-fi series — stepping into a richly imagined future alongside the likes of Nathan Never, Ann Never, and Ned Mace. Across a surprisingly enduring span stretching all the way to 2018, Hicks surfaces across multiple volumes of the Nathan Never universe, from the main series to Annozero and Generazioni, marking him as a figure woven into the long fabric of this beloved Bonelli world. With only eight catalogued appearances he's a selective presence rather than a constant one, the kind of character whose returns carry weight precisely because they're rare — a professor whose name alone hints at layers worth uncovering for any dedicated fan of Italian comics' modern age.
