Conquistador

A rare find from the mid-nineties, Conquistador made their Marvel debut in 1996 courtesy of the legendary creative duo Louise and Walt Simonson — a pedigree that alone makes this character worth a second look. With a slim but intriguing footprint spread across titles like Uncanny Origins, X-Men: Mutations, and X-Men Origins: Beast, this is a figure woven into the corners of the X-Men universe, sharing pages with luminaries like Angel, Beast, and Storm. Three appearances across twelve years gives Conquistador an air of mystery — a character who surfaces just enough to leave you wanting more.
