The Nyctalope vs Lucifer 3: The Triumph of the Nyctalope

Leo Saint-Clair, alias the Nyctalope, was created in 1911 by Jean de La Hire, one of France's most prolific serial writers. Gifted with night vision, hypnotic powers and an artificial heart, Saint-Clair is a fearless hero who battles colorful super-villains. His adventures, which spanned 30 years, created a template that was later adopted by such pulp heroes as Doc Savage (1933), before providing the core mythology of American comic books. In the third part of The Nyctalope vs Lucifer trilogy (1921), the Nyctalope finally confronts Baron Glô von Warteck, a.k.a. Lucifer, whose hypnotic powers, amplified by his "teledynamo," threatens to enslave the world. Also included in this book is a complete Nyctalope chronology by Jean-Marc Lofficier.
