Hornet

Buzzing onto the scene in 1993's Superpatriot #2, Hornet is a Copper/Modern Age Image Comics creation brought to life by the formidable trio of Erik Larsen, Keith Giffen, and Dave Johnson. This compact but intriguing figure moves through the energetic, boundary-pushing world of early Image, sharing pages with the likes of SuperPatriot, Mighty Man, and Johnny Armstrong across titles like Freak Force and Superpatriot. With appearances spread across more than a decade, Hornet is a cult corner of the sprawling Image universe — a rewarding discovery for collectors who love digging into the bold, creator-driven era that shook up mainstream comics in the nineties.
