Kelvin Mao

Kelvin Mao stepped onto the DC stage in 1995, born from the creative team of Beau Smith, Phil Jimenez, and Brad Gorby in the pages of Guy Gardner: Warrior — a title that embodied the rough-edged, high-octane spirit of the Copper/Modern Age. Over a publishing life stretching into 2010, this character turned up across a notably varied stretch of DC real estate, from Adventure Comics to Deathstroke, sharing panels with heavy hitters like Wonder Woman, Superboy, and Clark Kent. Five appearances may sound modest, but the company Kelvin Mao keeps and the range of titles he inhabits make him a genuine curiosity for the dedicated DC completist hunting the corners of the universe that the big encyclopedias tend to overlook.
