Chad Graham

A minor but memorable figure from the heat of DC's mid-2000s event era, Chad Graham stepped onto the page in 2005's Villains United #1 — Gail Simone and Dale Eaglesham's celebrated prelude to Infinite Crisis — rubbing shoulders with heavy hitters like Deathstroke, The Flash, and Green Lantern. His footprint in the catalog is small (just three appearances, spanning Gotham Knights to the Infinite Crisis Omnibus), but that debut alone places him at one of the most talked-about crossroads in Modern Age DC history. Sometimes the most intriguing characters are the ones who haunt the margins of the big moments.
