Who is Harlan Krueger?

Harlan Krueger is a human character who debuted in Marvel's Bronze Age horror series Werewolf by Night, placing him squarely in the supernatural underworld surrounding Jack Russell. He has crossed paths with figures including Spider-Man and Doctor Strange.

Emerging from the moody Bronze Age horror corner of Marvel in 1975, Harlan Krueger made his debut in the pages of Werewolf by Night — a title that tells you right away this character was born in one of comics' most atmospheric eras. Created by Doug Moench and Don Perlin, Krueger has quietly persisted across a remarkable span of nearly five decades, turning up in company as distinguished as Spider-Man, Spider-Woman, and Doctor Strange. With a catalog footprint stretching from Marvel UK's Super Spider-Man TV Comic to the prestige of a Doctor Strange: Sorcerer Supreme Omnibus, Krueger is the kind of deep-cut Bronze Age figure that rewards the curious collector willing to dig past the headliners.
