Friday

Debuting in the delightfully offbeat Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham #1 in 1985, Friday is a Marvel character who emerged from one of the Bronze Age's most charmingly irreverent corners of the publisher's universe. With a presence stretching across an impressive 36 years of comics history, Friday may have a modest appearance count but punches above their weight — including at least one collector-recognized key issue. Their most notable page time comes within the pages of Jonathan Hickman's celebrated Fantastic Four and FF runs, sharing adventures alongside the likes of Mass Master, Energizer, and the Power siblings, placing Friday squarely in the company of some of Marvel's most endearing young heroes. A quiet curiosity for the dedicated completist, Friday is exactly the kind of deep-catalog discovery that reminds you how wonderfully wide Marvel's world truly is.
