Bishop

Bishop is a mutant from a bleak future timeline who traveled back to the present day to prevent a catastrophe that destroyed the X-Men. Able to absorb and redirect energy, he joined the X-Men despite an uneasy, suspicious relationship with his new teammates.

Meet Bishop — a compelling figure who made their debut in the pages of X-Men #1 in 1997, brought to life by the creative team of Fabian Nicieza, Reinhard Schweizer, and Andy Kubert for Panini Deutschland. With 27 years of publication history stretching from 1997 all the way to 2024, this character has proven remarkably enduring across the Copper and Modern Ages of comics. Their adventures unfold most prominently across X-Men, X-Men Special, and Wolverine, sharing the page with heavy hitters like Storm, Cyclops, Hank McCoy, and Lucas Bishop — a roster that signals this character runs in serious company. With three key issues among their 41 catalog appearances, Bishop is well worth a collector's attention.
