Inextremis

A creature of the early '90s Marvel fringe, Inextremis burst onto the scene in 1993's Hokum & Hex #4, conjured by the creative team of Frank Lovece and Anthony Williams during comics' wild Copper/Modern Age experimentation. This rarity haunts the pages of Hyperkind and Hokum & Hex — two of Marvel's more offbeat corner-of-the-universe titles — keeping strange company with the likes of Tempest, Wilda MacPherson, and John Doore. With only a handful of catalogued appearances, Inextremis is exactly the kind of deep-cut discovery that makes digging through early-'90s Marvel back issues such a rewarding adventure for the dedicated collector.
