Who is Argus?

Argus is a DC hero who debuted in the pages of The Flash, operating in that title's high-speed corner of the DCU. He possesses the ability to see across the electromagnetic spectrum and can become invisible in darkness, making him a covert-action specialist.

Born from the creative team of Mark Waid, Mike Wieringo, and Rob Haynes, Argus made his entrance into the DC Universe in 1994's Flash #86 β€” a Modern Age debut that dropped him right into the thick of one of comics' most kinetic corners of the DCU. Over the decades he's kept genuinely impressive company, sharing pages with the likes of The Flash, Green Lantern, and Firestorm across titles including Justice League America and the landmark Zero Hour crossover. He may not have the towering appearance count of DC's heaviest hitters, but for fans who love digging into the rich supporting ecosystem that makes the Flash's world feel so alive, Argus is exactly the kind of find that rewards the curious collector.
