Turok

In 1998, Acclaim Entertainment revived the classic Valiant hero Turok for a four-issue miniseries, written by Fabian Nicieza with art by Rafael Kayanan. This modern take on the dinosaur hunter stripped away the original's time-travel trappings, grounding the story in a more primal, survivalist conflict set in a hidden land where prehistoric beasts still roam. It stands as a key chapter in Acclaim's attempt to reimagine the Valiant universe for a late-1990s audience, blending Nicieza's sharp scripting with Kayanan's visceral, detailed depictions of man versus nature.
