L'Homme-Dragon

Born in the Silver Age crucible of 1970, L'Homme-Dragon made their debut in Marvel #8 — a creation of the legendary Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, two architects of the Marvel universe at the height of their powers. Published under Semic S.A., this character has graced the French-language Marvel catalog across a remarkable 55-year span, turning up in titles like Nova and Captain America - Souvenirs et combats and sharing pages with the likes of Peter Parker, Ben Grimm, and Mister Fantastic. With 14 catalogued appearances including one collector-recognized key issue, L'Homme-Dragon is a fascinating piece of Franco-Belgian Marvel history — the kind of character that reminds devoted collectors just how wide and wonderfully varied the House of Ideas' reach truly was.
