Who is King Savage?

King Savage is a tough, capable operative who debuted as a member of DC's Secret Six, a covert team of adventurers assembled by the mysterious Mr. Mockingbird. He worked alongside fellow agents including Dr. Durant and Lili De Neuve on dangerous espionage missions.

A rugged presence born in the Silver Age pages of Action Comics #361 (1968), King Savage was brought to life by the legendary team of Jim Shooter and Al Plastino β€” a pedigree that alone makes any collector sit up straight. Over a roughly twenty-year stretch across DC's Secret Six, Action Comics, and Action Comics Weekly, this character carved out a niche in the company of some genuinely colorful figures β€” Dr. August Durant, Lili De Neuve, Carlo Di Rienzi, and even Superman himself. With only eight catalog appearances, King Savage is a rare find, the kind of deep-cut Silver Age discovery that rewards the curious reader willing to dig into DC's more adventurous corners.
