Hector Rendoza

Stepping onto the scene in the Modern Age pages of The Uncanny X-Men #392 (2001), Hector Rendoza is a Marvel mutant who made his debut under the creative hands of Scott Lobdell and Salvador Larroca — no small introduction, given that he shares those early pages with heavy hitters like Logan, Scott Summers, Alison Blaire, and Leyu Yoshida. A card-carrying X-Man, Hector occupies a fascinating corner of the roster as one of those characters who reminds us just how wide and varied the world of Marvel mutantkind truly is. With appearances spread across both The Uncanny X-Men and X-Men, he's a genuine piece of early-2000s Marvel history for the collector who loves discovering the full, rich depth of the X-Men universe beyond the household names.
