Who is Iceman?

Bobby Drake is a mutant born with the power to lower his body temperature and project intense cold, allowing him to generate ice and snow. One of the original five X-Men, he joined Professor Xavier's school as a teenager to learn to control his abilities and protect a world that fears mutants.

A cool presence in the Bronze Age Dutch comics scene, this Iceman made their catalog debut in De Verdedigers #44 in 1984 under the hand of Don Perlin, published by Juniorpress. Appearing most frequently across De X-Mannen, Cable, and De Verdedigers over a twelve-year span, this character keeps remarkable company — sharing pages with the likes of Bobby Drake, Wolverine, Storm, Gambit, and Hank McCoy. With 15 appearances catalogued across that run, it's a rewarding find for collectors tracing how Marvel's mutant universe reached Dutch-language readers during one of comics' most exciting eras.
