Hercules: The Knives of Kush

In this 2010 one-shot from Radical Comics, the legendary Hercules is cast into a brutal, politically charged adventure in ancient Kush. Artist Clint Langley brings a visceral, painted intensity to a story that pits the hero against deadly assassins and the machinations of a foreign court. It stands as a bold, standalone reimagining of the mythic figure within a gritty, historical-fantasy context.
