Charlie Palmer

Charlie Palmer is a supporting figure in the Valiant Universe connected to the H.A.R.D. Corps, an organization of soldiers equipped with implanted technology granting temporary superhuman abilities. Palmer appears across multiple Valiant titles alongside operatives like Gunslinger and Superstar.

Charlie Palmer made their mark on the Valiant Universe when The H.A.R.D. Corps launched in 1993, a product of the creative team of David Michelinie, Bob Layton, and Mike Leeke during comics' Copper/Modern Age boom. Over a span stretching all the way to 2014, Palmer turns up across some of Valiant's most compelling corners — The H.A.R.D. Corps, the landmark Deathmate crossover, and the fan-favorite Bloodshot series — sharing pages with a memorable roster that includes Gunslinger, Superstar, and Hammerhead. With a key-issue appearance to their name and over two decades of presence in the Acclaim/Valiant universe, Charlie Palmer is exactly the kind of deep-cut character that rewards the dedicated collector digging into one of comics' most distinctive publisher stories.
