Black Racer

Black Racer is a member of the Serpent Society, a mercenary organization of snake-themed villains, who crosses paths with Captain America. She operates alongside fellow Society members in the dangerous corners of the Marvel Universe.

Born into the Copper Age of Marvel Comics, Black Racer made her debut in Captain America #337 in 1988, the creation of the legendary Mark Gruenwald and artist Tom Morgan. As a card-carrying member of the Serpent Society — one of Marvel's most delightfully persistent villain collectives — she's carved out a niche in the corners of the Marvel Universe where Captain America's world gets genuinely dangerous, sharing pages with Steve Rogers himself alongside fellow Society members like Puff Adder. With two key collector issues to her name and a publication history stretching an impressive 37 years from 1988 to 2025, Black Racer is a testament to the enduring appeal of Gruenwald's rich rogues' gallery — a deep-cut gem for any serious Captain America collector worth their longbox.
