Jim Scully

Jim Scully is a troubled Vietnam veteran who becomes stranded in a savage prehistoric world after his plane vanishes through a strange dimensional anomaly, leaving him to fight dinosaurs and ancient threats while struggling to lead a small group of fellow survivors.

A Bronze Age creation from the fertile imagination of Marv Wolfman and Steve Gan, Jim Scully made his Marvel debut in Skull the Slayer #1 back in 1975 — a launching pad that would see his presence ripple through the decades all the way to 2016. With a catalog footprint touching titles as varied as Hawkeye, Quasar, and X-Men, he's the kind of supporting player who quietly keeps remarkable company, sharing pages with the likes of Ben Grimm, Clint Barton, and Hawkeye himself. Fifteen appearances across forty-plus years makes Jim Scully a rewarding discovery for the dedicated Marvel completist who loves unearthing the connective tissue of the universe.
