Written by GREG PAK & FRED VAN LENTE
Pencils by Georges Jeanty
Cover by CARLO PAGULAYAN
Variant Cover by JOHN ROMITA JR.
A BOLD NEW ERA FOR THE LION OF OLYMPUS! The Chaos War left?Hercules without
powers -- and without a sidekick. But when mythic evil stalks the streets, and a
latter day band of Hercules-worshippers cries out for their savior, what is the
son of Zeus to do? He takes his three thousand years of combat experience, raids
the armory of Ares for the most fearsome weapons of legend, descends from heaven
and gets medieval on their asses. Return to Olympus with Hercules' "Dream Team"
of writers Greg Pak & Fred Van Lente and artist George Jeanty for an all-new,
all-dark on-going saga here! |
