"The Thracian Wars, Part Four"
After discovering that King Cotys, in the name of his God, plans to invade and conquer Greece, Hercules and his band prepare to leave. When Cotys learns of the eaves-dropping that Hercules and his men have done, they are placed under house-arrest. When they plan an escape which goes bad, Hercules is taken prisoner by Cotys and tortured.
*Bronze Age Thrace: Hercules and his fellow mercenaries have led the armies of King Cotys to a bloody victory that welds the local tribes into a single nation, only to find themselves betrayed and imprisoned by the very man they served.
Now, with Greece itself under threat, only a daring scheme can save the band from imminent torture and death … a scheme which can only lead to bloodshed on a massive scale. *Source: radicalcomics.com
