Hercules
Charlton · 1967–1969 · 13 issues
About the series
In the late 1960s, Charlton Comics gave the legendary strongman his own series, blending classical mythology with superhero action across 13 issues. Writers Steve Skeates, Joe Gill, and Sergius O'Shaughnessy, alongside artists Jim Aparo, Sam Glanzman, and Sanho Kim, sent Hercules on adventures that ranged from battling mythical beasts to confronting modern threats. This run stands out for its energetic, often offbeat storytelling and as an early showcase for Aparo's dynamic art, offering a distinctive take on the demigod before he became a mainstay in other publishers' universes.
