Who is Banshee?

A Bronze Age creation from the fertile imaginations of Gary Friedrich and Dick Ayers, Banshee first rode onto the Marvel stage in 1975's Night Rider #5 — a debut that planted this character firmly in the wild, adventurous spirit of that era. Over a remarkable span stretching nearly five decades to 2022, Banshee has kept genuinely distinguished company, sharing pages with the likes of Scarlet Witch, Wanda Maximoff, and Nathaniel Richards across collections including Avengers: The Serpent Crown and Avengers Epic Collection. It's a fascinating cross-genre Marvel presence — born in a Western-flavored corner of the Bronze Age yet woven into the broader tapestry of the House of Ideas. For collectors hunting the deeper cuts of Marvel's rich history, Banshee is exactly the kind of discovery that reminds you how vast and surprising the catalog truly is.
