Who is Barton Grimes?

Barton Grimes made his entrance in the pages of Iron Man #187 in 1984, born from the Bronze Age collaboration of Denny O'Neil and Luke McDonnell during one of Marvel's most creatively charged eras. Over four decades his name has surfaced across some of Marvel's most iconic titles — Iron Man, Captain America, and New Avengers — keeping remarkable company with the likes of Spider-Man, Ms. Marvel, Captain America, and Wolverine along the way. With 16 catalog appearances and two collector-recognized key issues to his name, Grimes is the kind of character that rewards the deep-diving fan — a persistent thread woven quietly through Marvel's tapestry, showing up where the action is for over forty years.
