About the series
From 2012 to 2017, Delcourt published the three-issue Luther Strode series, a lean, visceral saga of a bullied teenager who acquires superhuman strength through a mysterious mail-order fitness program. The story follows his violent transformation and the horrifying consequences of his newfound power, blending brutal action with a dark, modern take on the classic superhero origin. Written by Justin Jordan and illustrated by Tradd Moore, this compact run is remembered for its explosive, kinetic artwork and its unflinching exploration of power and consequence in a world that feels both familiar and nightmarish.
