Haroun ibn Sallah al-Rashid

Debuting in the pages of Firestar #2 back in 1986, Haroun ibn Sallah al-Rashid is a Copper Age Marvel creation brought to life by Tom DeFalco, Mary Wilshire, and Bob Wiacek — a character whose roots reach into one of the most fertile and experimental periods in Marvel's history. Over nearly four decades, his appearances have threaded through Firestar, The New Mutants, and New Mutants, placing him in the orbit of memorable figures like Jetstream, Empath, Catseye, and Manuel de la Rocha. With 15 catalog appearances including a key collector issue, he's the kind of supporting player who rewards the dedicated reader digging deep into the rich ensemble storytelling of that era — a quiet but genuine piece of the Marvel tapestry worth seeking out.
