Requin-Tigre

Born in the Bronze Age pages of Spécial Strange #10 in 1977 — brought to life by the legendary team of Chris Claremont and Dave Cockrum — Requin-Tigre is a fascinating corner of French Marvel publishing history, appearing through Editions Lug across an impressive span stretching all the way to 2014. With just eight catalogued appearances, this is a rare find for the dedicated collector, and the fact that one of those issues carries key-issue status makes the hunt all the more worthwhile. Sharing pages with titans like Thor, Captain America, and Captain Marvel speaks to the grand company this character keeps, while series like Ombrax-Saga and Marvel Comics - La collection give a sense of the rich Franco-Belgian Marvel landscape in which Requin-Tigre carved out a place.
