About the series
At the dawn of the mid-1970s, Seaboard Comics launched a short-lived but punchy three-issue run of The Scorpion, a vigilante series largely helmed by the dynamic writer/artist Howard Chaykin alongside Gabriel Levy and Jim Craig. The strip pits the titular masked hero against the criminal machinations of the enigmatic Moro Frost, delivering a gritty, action-driven slice of the era's anti-hero boom. Though brief, the series stands as a notable artifact of Seaboard’s ambitious but fleeting attempt to carve out a place in the Bronze Age comics landscape.
