Hercules (Radical Comics)

Hercules is a Radical Comics character who has appeared in two limited series, The Thracian Wars[1] and The Knives of Kush,[2] both written by Steve Moore with Cris Bolsin as the artist.

The Jim Steranko "Hercules" from the cover of the first issue is also featured in solid bronze as the first in the Radical Toyz product line.

Following their departure from Thrace, Hercules and his companions travel to Egypt where they become embroiled in the civil war between Seti II and Amenmesse.

Paramount and MGM released a film adaptation of Moore's tale, under the direction of filmmaker Brett Ratner, with the title role played by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.

Reece Ritchie was cast as Hercules' cousin, Iolaus of Athens,[7] Tobias Santelmann as the film's apparent antagonist, Rhesus,[8] and Ingrid Bolsø Berdal took the part of the female lead, the Amazon archer Atalanta of Scythia.
