Karnak Mander-Azur

A Bronze Age discovery with serious staying power, Karnak Mander-Azur made their debut in the pages of Top BD #2 in 1983 under the hand of Jim Starlin, and has been gracing the catalog ever since — a remarkable span stretching all the way to 2025. Published by Panini France and appearing most prominently in Marvel Knights, Titans, and Marvel Elite, this character shares their adventures alongside a truly distinguished roster that includes Blackagar Boltagon, Medusalith Amaquelin Boltagon, Gorgon Petragon, and Flèche Noire — rarefied company by any measure. With two key collector issues among their 28 catalog appearances, Karnak Mander-Azur is the kind of find that rewards the dedicated reader who digs a little deeper into the French-market side of comics history.
