Commissar Rostov

Cold War tension meets the wild frontier of 1990s Image Comics in Commissar Rostov, a figure who stepped onto the scene in Team 7 #3 in 1994, courtesy of creators Chuck Dixon and Aron Wiesenfeld. Emerging during the Copper/Modern Age, when Image was rewriting the rules of superhero storytelling, Rostov inhabits a gritty, militaristic corner of that universe — sharing pages with hard-edged operators like Cole Cash, Marc Slayton, and Stephen Callahan across Team 7 and Team 7 - Objective: Hell. Rare and intriguing with only three catalog appearances to his name, Rostov is the kind of deep-cut character that rewards fans who love digging into the shadowy, espionage-flavored edges of the Image universe.
