Synopsis for "The Stranger"

Reprint of the 2nd story from
Hulk Comic (UK) #1
(originally printed as The Black Knight)
On a mission for Merlyn, the Black Knight has a near collision with a helicopter. When the chopper swerves to avoid a collision it ends up crashing. The Black Knight lands and finds that the pilot is okay, but discovers that he was on an important mission to get a supply of blood to the remote village of Trewelyn. The Black Knight agrees to help and flies off on his horse Valinor.

Elsewhere in the town of Cornwall an elderly woman named Old Sarah Mumford senses a bad omen that will bring about the so-called "Dark Rider" to her village, she notes that it is now snowing in June. As she walks back to her cottage she spots a strange man known only as the Stranger standing out by the ocean. She also walks past the downed chopper. The pilot then reports in his encounter with the Black Knight. This transmission is intercepted by a man who reports the situation to his master the evil Mordred. He then unleashes two Blood Ravens to intercept their foe.

The Black Knight is then attacked by an R.A.F. fighter that shoots Valinor out of the sky. Grounded, the Black Knight recovers just in time for the Blood Ravens to encroach upon him.

Synopsis for "Big Shot"

Reprint of the 6th story from
Hulk Comic (UK) #12
(originally printed as Night-Raven)
At the offices of The Sentinel newspaper, the chief assigns his crime reporter Scoop Daly to find out what he can learn about the mysterious vigilante known as the Night Raven. Accepting the assignment Daly goes to a shady part of town and checks into the Hotel Riviera. In his shoddy hotel room, Scoop then preps his camera to snap a photo of the mysterious vigilante, confident that he will be able to succeed in his assignment.

Later that evening, Scoop is walking the streets when he suddenly gets lost and is attacked by a mugger who holds him at knife point. Before he can be stabbed, the mugger is sent fleeing by the sudden arrival of a police car. As the officers streak by with guns blazing, Scoop makes the futile effort of trying to stop them for help, but the drive onward, ignoring him. Suddenly a massive bird with a face that resembles the mark of the masked man he has been hired to find appears in the sky. Pleading to be left alone, Scoop is grabbed by the bird and flown high above the city. Screaming, Daly wakes up to find out that the entire ordeal has been nothing more than a terrible nightmare.

However, the screaming hasn't stopped and he realizes that someone is screaming in the lobby downstairs. Sneaking to the stairs, Scoop witnesses a robbery in progress and begins setting up his camera for an exclusive photo. As he begins focusing the lens, he witnesses the Night Raven enter the room and becomes even more excited for what will happen next.
