Hercule #5

Oct 1977 · Arédit-Artima · 4 FRF
“Créature de légende”

In "Créature de légende," a seemingly ordinary salesman becomes the unexpected key to thwarting an alien invasion, thanks to a sudden burst of memory triggered by a single act of defiance. Written and illustrated with sharp, expressive detail by Jim Mooney, this 1977 issue of Hercule delivers a tense, grounded sci-fi thriller where the line between human and extraterrestrial blurs. The cover by Rich Buckler and Wally Wood captures the story’s eerie, otherworldly tension.
