Hercules #1

A modern Hercules strides forward on this striking 2016 series opener, armed with a mace and short sword, wearing a tactical harness and golden lion-head belt buckle that bridges his ancient heritage with a contemporary edge. Behind him, a vivid collage sets the scope of his world: a mythological Hercules wrestling a great serpent and lion, the Statue of Liberty, a cityscape, armed street criminals, scattered money, and all the chaos of modern New York. Dan Abnett writes, Luke Ross handles art, and cover art by Clay Mann makes a confident, compelling case for Marvel's Prince of Power reclaiming his place as a hero for any era.
