Amazed by Aparo: "The Feud" by Skeates and Aparo

Greetings, Groove-ophiles! Today we're gonna gaze on some early Jim Aparo artwork from the back pages of Charlton's Hercules #1 (July 1967). Thane of Bagarth was written by Steve Skeates, set in the days of King Beowulf and read a whole lot like a companion strip to Prince Valiant. Skeates' stories were (as always) intriguing, and Aparo's art was a joy to behold. Check it out!









Man, wouldn't it have been cool to have seen JA take on Conan? Oh, the missed opportunities!
