I’ll continue to give Marvel credit in trying to make Hercules a thing because you can see them wanting to bring him about as a potential god to use theatrically when they need to put Thor away for awhile. The latest attempt to get the character up to speed, after his recent Secret Wars 2099 appearance, is his own series that lands on November 4th, 20th. The new book comes from writer Dan Abnett and artist Luke Ross and now Marvel has shown off the finalized cover, the variant covers, and a few unlettered pages from it.

Plot concept: Time to show the world why he set the bar for heroism in the first place. Whether its street crime or cosmic level threats, not labor is too big or small for the greatest son of Olympus. But a new evil has awoken – one that will push the demi-god to the limit and test his mighty resolve. Witness the Marvel Universe through the eyes of one of its most powerful warriors, and the heart of a true champion. A modern world, an age-old hero and non-stop action await you in HERCULES #1 – on-sale this November!
