Dragon
A green-skinned, fin-headed amnesiac, Dragon was discovered in a burning Chicago field with no memory of his past. He joined the Chicago Police Department to fight the city's rampant supervillain problem, using his extraordinary strength and rapid healing to protect the innocent.
Few characters can claim the kind of staying power that Dragon has built since bursting onto the scene in The Malibu Sun #14 in 1992, co-created by Ben Dunn at the dawn of Image Comics' era-defining explosion. Over more than three decades of continuous publication β stretching all the way to 2026 β this fin-headed phenomenon has anchored Savage Dragon, one of the longest-running creator-owned series in American comics, while also turning up across Freak Force and Big Bang Comics for good measure. With 404 catalog appearances and a remarkable 16 key issues to their name, Dragon is the rare Copper/Modern Age figure who has genuinely earned legendary status, sharing wild adventures alongside the likes of Mighty Man, SuperPatriot, and Jon Day. If you're looking for a character who embodies the raw, independent spirit of Image Comics at its most vital and enduring, Dragon is absolutely worth your time.
