L'Exorciste

A mysterious figure who materialized in the pages of French publisher Editions Lug's Spécial Strange in 1987, L'Exorciste arrived during the Copper Age with serious creative pedigree — brought to life by the celebrated team of Chris Claremont, John Romita Jr., and Dan Green. With appearances spread across Strange, Nova, and Ombrax-Saga, this character found a home in the rich Franco-Belgian Marvel reprint ecosystem, sharing pages with the likes of Eric Payne, Valkyrie, Patsy Walker, and Puck. Nine catalog appearances across a brief 1987–1989 window make L'Exorciste a genuinely rare find — the kind of elusive gem that rewards the dedicated hunter of international comics history.
