A mysterious criminal mastermind shoots Engineer Pierre Saint-Clair and steals his plans for a revolutionary invention. His son, Leo, and a band of young adventurers, pursue the villains, a gang of international anarchists, to Switzerland, where he is captured and murdered. But like a phoenix, he rises from the dead, having gained the power to see in the dark, and sporting a heart made of metal and rubber, powered by electro-magnets. 20-year-old Leo Saint-Clair has now become-the superheroic Nyctalope!
Our latest release, ENTER THE NYCTALOPE,was written in 1933 (20 years or so after THE NYCTALOPE ON MARS).
It was Jean de La Hire's way of telling the heretofore unrevealed origins of Leo Saint-Clair *and* like a proto-John Byrne, rewriting some of the continuity in order to make him seem younger.
The book also contains an all-new Nyctalope story by Emmanuel Gorlier, plus two more Nyctalope stories from TOTS by Roman Leary and JM Lofficier.
The cover is by Denis Rodier.
