Edmund Da Orkney
Edmund Da Orkney stepped onto the page in 1994 through Caliber Press's StormQuest, a title that showcased the indie ambition of the Copper/Modern Age, brought to life by the creative team of Tom and Mary Bierbaum and Greg Land. With only five catalogued appearances across the series' brief run, Edmund is a rare find — the kind of character that rewards dedicated hunters of early-nineties independent comics. He keeps intriguing company within those pages, sharing adventures with the likes of Shrike, Barricade, and Shalimar, a roster that hints at a richly imagined world beyond the mainstream. For collectors with a taste for the road less traveled, Edmund Da Orkney is a genuine piece of that restless, experimental spirit that made small-press comics of the era so worth exploring.
