Dane Whitman
Dane Whitman is a physicist who inherited the mantle of the Black Knight from his villainous uncle Nathan Garrett, along with the legendary Ebony Blade — a mystical sword with a bloodcurse. Rejecting his uncle's criminal legacy, he became a valiant Avenger and knight-errant.
Dane Whitman made his entrance into comics during the Bronze Age, debuting in Aventure dans la Jungle #5 in 1973 under Editions Lug, and has remained a presence in the catalog across an impressive five-plus decades. His adventures have found a home most prominently in French publications like Strange, Marvel Comics - La collection, and Marvel Classic, placing him in distinguished company alongside the likes of Captain America, Iron Man, and Le Chevalier Noir. With 41 appearances and at least one collector-recognized key issue to his name, Dane Whitman is a rewarding figure for fans who love digging into the rich history of Marvel's international publishing legacy — proof that great characters travel well across borders and eras.
