DOC SAVAGE #18: The Monsters/The Whisker of Hercules
By Lester Dent.
America's first superhero returns in two adventures by Dent. First, Doc Savage battles genetically engineered giants in "The Monsters," the classic pulp thriller that inspired the Hugo Strange story in Batman #1. Then, the Man of Bronze and his Iron Crew discover an army of superpowered criminals in the Whisker of Hercules. This pulp reprint includes both the original color covers by Modest Stein, and Walter Baumhofer, and interior illustration by Paul Orban. Historical insights from Will Murray.
