Étranges Aventures #2
In "The Claw dupe Hitler!", a bizarre global wave of submarine disappearances sends FBI agent Amos Dobbs racing to the doorstep of reclusive tech magnate Hugh Hazzard. With a state-of-the-art naval vessel set to launch the next day and a shadowy sabotage ring still at large, Dobbs and Hazzard must rally a crew from Annapolis before the next wave of chaos hits. Written by George Brenner and Jean Depelley, with art and inks by Brenner and colors by Reed Man, this surreal thriller unfolds with a sleek, unsettling precision — and a cover by Reed Man that captures its eerie, off-kilter tone.
In a twisted twist of wartime intrigue, Hitler seeks the aid of the enigmatic villain The Claw to crush British forces in Singapore—only for Daredevil to infiltrate the scheme by posing as the Claw’s lieutenant. With the fate of the city hanging in the balance, the young man known as Daredevil must outwit both the Nazi leader and the mysterious Japonais in a high-stakes game of deception.
In the quiet luxury of an upscale apartment building, FBI agent Amos Dobbs arrives to warn Hugh Hazzard about a global pattern of submarine disappearances—four in just one week, two of them American. With the Navy’s newest and most advanced sub set to launch at noon the next day, and Dobbs certain it’s the next target, the two must rally Admiral Hull at Annapolis to secure the crew before it’s too late.
The Spider, a lone vigilante in a city gripped by fear, faces a new threat in the form of a mysterious criminal known as the Cricket—another masked figure who leaves behind the same eerie calling card as his predecessor. As the Spider closes in on the truth, he discovers the Cricket is not alone, and the line between hunter and hunted begins to blur.
