Description

This comic is an issue of "Strange" magazine, number 115, published by Lug and dated July 1979. The cover, perfectly legible, says "Le Journal de Spider-Man" (Spider-Man's Journal) and features the Marvel logo in the upper left. The title "Strange" is displayed in characteristic green letters on a beige background, accompanied by the red text "tout en couleurs" (all in color). The cover illustration depicts Daredevil in action on a trapeze, a blue character (likely The Beast) clinging to a rope, and another character in a purple and green costume, identifiable as The Ringmaster, on a stylized circus ring. In the lower left, the "Collection LUG Super Héros" seal is clearly visible.

The colors of the cover are vibrant and well-contrasted, with dominant red, green, blue, and yellow tones. The artwork is typical of the late 1970s, faithful to the Marvel style of the era, with strong outlines and dynamic staging. The top of the cover also presents editorial information: "N. 115, Mensuel, 5 Juillet 1979, 450 Fr., Suisse 2.50 S., Maroc 4.50 H.", as well as ISSN 0395-3696.

The magazine is presented closed; the spine and back are not visible in the photo. No major flaws are apparent on the displayed side: the cover appears clean, without marked creases or visible tears, and the corners are generally neat. The printing is clear, with no significant discoloration. The mention "MARVEL présente" (MARVEL presents) confirms official publication under license from Marvel Comics.

This issue belongs to the "Super Héros" collection published by LUG, an emblematic French publisher for the distribution of Marvel comics in France in the 1970s and 1980s. The cover highlights several Marvel heroes, indicative of varied content centered on the universe of American superheroes. The format corresponds to that of monthly French comics of this period, with no specific dimensions mentioned in the image or keywords.
