Cage

A Bronze Age original, Cage made their Marvel debut in 1980's The Incredible Hulk #243, brought to life by the creative team of Steven Grant, Roger Stern, and Sal Buscema. Over a remarkable four-decade span stretching from 1980 all the way to 2021, this character has proven surprisingly durable for a figure with roots in the era of bell-bottoms and big storytelling ambitions. The company Cage keeps is genuinely impressive — sharing pages with the likes of Spider-Man, Dr. Strange, and Matt Murdock across titles like The Secret Defenders and Daredevil speaks to a character woven into the fabric of Marvel's street-level and supernatural corners alike. With a catalog presence that has quietly endured across 41 years, Cage is the kind of deep-cut discovery that rewards the dedicated Marvel explorer.
