John Malone

A DC Universe fixture since 1985, John Malone made his entrance in one of the Bronze Age's most beloved reference works — Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe — which tells you right away that he was considered worthy of documentation in DC's grand roll call of characters. His catalog footprint spans an impressive 27 years, with appearances in landmark collections like The Infinite Crisis Omnibus and The OMAC Project, placing him in some genuinely consequential DC storytelling alongside the likes of Green Lantern, Firestorm, and Manhunter. With a key issue already to his name and a presence in The Power Company, Malone is one of those quietly enduring corners of the DC Universe that rewards the curious collector willing to dig a little deeper.
