In 1975, The Hidalgo Trading Company, a small Québec publisher, set out to reimagine Doc Savage for a new Francophone generation. They planned an entire year of original French-language adventures, each paired with bold, unforgettable cover paintings that defined Doc Savage reprints in the USA.
Before a single issue reached readers the project vanished! The company folded, the manuscripts disappeared, and L’Homme de Bronze became a rumor whispered among collectors for decades.
Until now.
A forgotten storage box found in Montréal has revealed lost fragments of that dream: draft covers, working titles, and handwritten blurbs for twelve never-published novels. From these rediscovered relics, we’ve built the 2026 Hidalgo Trading Company Calendar, a vivid celebration of cover art, French imagination, and the audacity of a vanished vision.
What’s Inside:
Each month showcases a restored Doc Savage cover painting matched with its original 1970s French title and blurb, newly translated into English. The calendars note important dates in the Doc Savage mythos.
Twelve months. Twelve untold adventures. One impossible comeback.
