Host

A mysterious presence who stepped onto the DC stage in 1987's Superman #5, Host was brought to life by the legendary John Byrne during one of the most celebrated reinventions in comics history. Debuting in the thick of the Copper Age, this character keeps remarkably rarefied company — sharing pages with Superman, Batman, Bruce Wayne, Clark Kent, and Green Lantern across the flagship titles Superman, Action Comics, and Adventures of Superman. With only a handful of catalogued appearances, Host is the kind of deep-cut discovery that rewards the dedicated reader hunting through the corners of DC's post-Crisis universe.
