Je ne tilte que maintenant que c’est une mise à jour du personnage de Jerry Siegel pour Gold Key, au début des années 1970. J’avais pas encore fait le rapprochement. Dynamite a mis la main sur les droits du catalogue Dell / Western / Gold Key ? Ou alors, ils ont signé un contrat avec la boîte qui en possède les droits (si c’est le cas) ? J’imagine mal que tout cela soit tombé dans le domaine public…
Bon, et à quand un remake de Dagar the Invincible ?
