Dai Thomas

Dai Thomas is a gruff British police detective operating in the Marvel UK universe, frequently crossing paths with Captain Britain. A skeptic of superheroes, he serves as a persistent thorn in the side of costumed adventurers while investigating the strange cases that surround them.

A gruff presence in the Marvel UK corner of the universe, Dai Thomas made his debut in the landmark Captain Britain #1 in 1985, brought to life by the creative team of Jamie Delano, John Tomlinson, and Alan Davis during the Bronze Age. Over nearly three decades, he's turned up across Captain Britain, Strip, and Excalibur, sharing pages with the likes of Captain Britain himself, Kurt Wagner, and the wonderfully bizarre Tweedledope — company that speaks to the gloriously eccentric world he inhabits. With only ten catalogued appearances he's a genuine deep-cut find, the kind of character that rewards fans who love digging into Marvel's rich British heritage.
