Homem de Gelo

Homem de Gelo is the Brazilian Portuguese edition name for Iceman (Bobby Drake), the X-Men founding member who can generate and manipulate ice and cold. His debut in this Brazilian Marvel series introduced Brazilian readers to the freeze-powered mutant hero.

Homem de Gelo made their Brazilian comics debut in 1983's Superaventuras Marvel #16 — a Bronze Age entry point brought to life through the combined talents of Chris Claremont, Len Wein, and Dave Cockrum. Published by Editora Abril across an impressive stretch reaching all the way to 2021, this character's presence spans nearly four decades of Brazilian Marvel publishing history. The company here is genuinely distinguished: the pages are shared with the likes of Scott Summers, Bobby Drake, Warren Worthington III, and others, placing Homem de Gelo squarely within some of Marvel's most celebrated adventures as they appeared for Brazilian readers. For collectors of Editora Abril's beloved run — Superaventuras Marvel, Edições GEP, Marvel Série I — this is a name worth seeking out on your shelf.
