Herakles

Herakles strides out of the pages of Erik Larsen's Savage Dragon — an Image Comics titan who has been part of that wild, unpredictable universe since his 1998 debut in issue #45. Over more than two decades, this mythic powerhouse has proven his staying power across Savage Dragon, Savage Dragon: God War, and Savage Dragon Archives, racking up 33 catalog appearances and two key issues that collectors have flagged as genuinely significant. He runs in extraordinary company — sharing pages with Dragon himself, Thor, Mighty Man, and Angel Murphy — which tells you everything about the grand, mythological scale at which Larsen pitches his storytelling. If you love comics that aren't afraid to swing for the gods, Herakles is a figure well worth tracking down.
