About the series
Monty Wedd’s The Scorpion is a modest nine-issue Australian series from Elmsdale, launched in 1950 and continuing sporadically into the present. Wedd, the primary writer and artist, crafted a lone, noir-tinged vigilante saga that stands as a distinctive early entry in the country’s homegrown costumed hero tradition. Its enduring, if sparse, publication history speaks to its cult resonance within Australian comics.
