Colonel Hendershoot

Colonel Hendershoot is a military figure who made his entrance in the pages of Marvel Klassik #13 in 2002, part of the German-language Hachette publishing line that brought Marvel's stories to a new readership. Though his catalog footprint is modest, he keeps distinguished company — sharing pages with the likes of Cyclops, Iceman, and Scott Summers in titles like Marvel Origins and Marvel Klassik. A character whose presence spans an impressively long publication window for such a selective role, Colonel Hendershoot is one of those background pillars of authority that give Marvel's military and institutional world its texture and weight.
