Black Box

Black Box is a Marvel information broker who appears in the pages of Cable & Deadpool, operating in the dangerous underworld alongside figures like Cable and Deadpool. He specializes in gathering and selling intelligence, making him a valued — and dangerous — resource in that chaotic corner of the Marvel Universe.

A creature of the Modern Age Marvel Universe, Black Box made their entrance in 2006 through the pages of the All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z — a fitting debut for a character whose very existence feels like classified information worth cataloguing. Most of their comic footprint is found in Cable & Deadpool, keeping company with heavy hitters like Cable, Nathan Summers, and Deadpool, which tells you this is a figure who moves in loud, dangerous circles. With only 13 appearances on record, Black Box is a rare find — the kind of deep-cut Marvel character that rewards the curious reader willing to dig into one of the Modern Age's most entertainingly chaotic team-up titles.
