Mustang

Born in the pages of Spécial Strange #20 in 1980, Mustang is a Bronze Age creation with a distinctly Franco-Belgian flavor — debuting under the Editions Lug banner with a first appearance crafted by none other than Chris Claremont and John Byrne, a creative pairing that needs no introduction to any serious collector. Over a run spanning some 21 years, this character carved out a niche across Mustang, Strange, and Fantask, sharing pages with a colorful roster including Photonik, Mikros, and Ozark. With 17 catalogued appearances and three recognized key issues, Mustang is exactly the kind of gem that rewards the curious fan willing to dig into the rich, often-overlooked world of French comics publishing.
