Maroc the Mighty

Originally serialized in Lion, Maroc the Mighty is a action-packed adventure story about a thirteenth century superhero! A knight fighting in The Crusades, John Maroc comes into possession of the "The Hand of Zar," a magic amulet which grants its wearer superhuman strength, but only when bathed in the sun's rays. This medieval super-hero strip was illustrated by Don Lawrence and published in Lion between his work on the Karl the Viking series and his beautifully-painted The Trigan Empire.
