Father Lantom

A quietly compelling presence in Marvel's Modern Age, Father Lantom made his entrance in the pages of Runaways in 2005, courtesy of the acclaimed creative team of Brian K. Vaughan and Adrian Alphona. His brief but memorable catalog footprint places him in remarkable company — sharing those pages with the likes of Cloak, Tandy Bowen, Nico Minoru, and Gertrude Yorkes, which speaks to the richly layered world Runaways inhabited. A small role, perhaps, but in a book this beloved, even a handful of appearances carries real weight for devoted fans of that era.
