Flytrap

Flytrap is a character from Arthur Suydam's creator-driven stories in Marvel's Epic Illustrated, appearing alongside companions like Cholly in a science-fantasy adventure series that later earned its own dedicated title, Cholly and Flytrap.

Arthur Suydam introduced Flytrap to readers in the pages of Epic Illustrated #8 in 1981, a Bronze Age debut that planted this character squarely in Marvel's ambitious creator-driven anthology — a playground for some of the era's most adventurous comics storytelling. Sharing adventures with the likes of Cholly, Ben Zimmer, and Matt Raines across Epic, Epic Illustrated, and the dedicated Cholly and Flytrap series, Flytrap's presence stretched across a remarkable 24 years, from 1981 all the way to 2005. With only a handful of catalog appearances, this is a rare, cult corner of the Marvel universe — the kind of character that rewards the curious collector who loves digging past the mainstream into the weird, wonderful margins where true originals live.
