Hello!
Today I want to show you Adventurers-themed comics made by Steven Bishop, also known as Athos.
At present, he made four of them:
1. Johnny Thunder and the King of the Gypsies - it tells the story of Eridanus Cooke (a friend of Johnny, a "replacement" for dr Kilroy) and his peripeteia with the king of the gypsies and his daughter. The content is perhaps not very elegant, but the plot is interesting. ;) The comics, apart from Kilroy, also does not contain Baron von Barron.
2. Johnny Thunder and the Poachers of Prehistory - one of the less interesting, in my opinion. It tells the story of poachers hunting for dinosaurs on some South American island. They also capture miss Pippin Read.
3. Johnny Thunder and the Cave of Terror - this is my favourite comics. This is a story about Johnny and his friends and his enemies - including dr Kilroy and Baron von Barron - searching for a treasure in a cave, which they found out to be magic and haunted (it sounds a bit funny :) ). It is worth mentioning, that the story was published on the All Saints Eve, also known as Hallowe'en. ;)
4. Johnny Thunder and Blackheart's Gold - all "classic" heroes and Eridanus Cooke are included. The story is about searching for a pirates' treasure in amazon jungle.
A comics named "Johnny Thunder and Valhalla's Stepchildren" telling about adventures of the adventurers with vikings, is said to be in progress, but I do not think that it will be finished in the nearest future.
Anyway, I encourage you to read and watch.
Best regards, Dr Kilroy
