This first volume of the Savage Dragon series collects the earliest adventures of the hulking green-skinned police officer known as Dragon, a character created by Erik Larsen. Set in a chaotic world of super-powered beings and crime, the stories follow Dragon as he joins the Chicago police force and battles a rogues' gallery of bizarre villains, including Overlord and Mighty Man. This foundational collection introduces key supporting characters like Frank Darling and Alex Wilde, establishing the gritty yet humorous tone that defines the long-running series.
