Magnus An 4000

From 1972 to 1977, Éditions des Remparts published Magnus An 4000, a 17-issue French series that adapted the adventures of the metal-encased hero from the far future. Most frequently written by Russ Manning, Herb Kastle, and Eric Freiwald, and illustrated by Manning alongside Mike Royer and Paul Norris, the series brought a European sensibility to its sci-fi premise. It stands as a distinctive, short-lived chapter in the character's publication history, showcasing Manning's influential vision for a world of robots and humanoid conflict.
