Elijah Snow

Elijah Snow is a century baby — born on January 1, 1900 — gifted with the ability to generate intense cold. He leads Planetary, a team of super-powered archaeologists uncovering the secret history of a stranger-than-fiction world alongside Jakita Wagner and The Drummer.

Born in the closing years of the twentieth century, Elijah Snow made his entrance in C-23 #6 in 1998, a product of comics' Modern Age and a character whose greatest adventures would unfold across the pages of Planetary. Published under DC, he moves through stories alongside a compelling cast — The Drummer, Jakita Wagner, Randall Dowling, Axel Brass, and Kevin Sack among them — suggesting a world of intrigue, big ideas, and larger-than-life personalities. With only a handful of catalog appearances, Snow is a focused, carefully crafted presence rather than a sprawling franchise figure, the kind of character whose every issue carries weight. If you're drawn to late-'90s comics that felt genuinely ambitious, Elijah Snow is exactly the kind of discovery worth chasing down.
