Who is Ba'al?

Ba'al is a shadowy figure from the street-level underworld of the Marvel Universe, encountered in Madripoor alongside Wolverine (operating under his 'Patch' alias) and Jessica Drew. Little is publicly known about his background or true identity.

Debuting in the pages of Wolverine #12 in 1989, Ba'al is a Copper Age Marvel creation born from the sharp storytelling of Peter David and the legendary pencils of John Buscema. This enigmatic figure carved out a niche in the gritty, street-level corners of the Marvel Universe, sharing those dangerous pages with the likes of Wolverine, Jessica Drew, and the shadowy Patch. With a presence notable enough to earn an entry in the All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z, Ba'al may be a rare find in the catalog, but that scarcity only adds to the intrigue for dedicated collectors hunting the deeper cuts of Marvel's rich Copper Age landscape.
