Who is La Cape?

La Cape is the French-language identity of Cloak (Tyrone Johnson), a runaway teenager who gained the power to access a dark dimension after being subjected to an experimental drug. He partners with Dagger, channeling darkness while she wields light.

Born in the Bronze Age pages of a French-language Marvel publication, La Cape made their debut in Spécial Strange #33 in 1983 — brought to life by the legendary creative pairing of Chris Claremont and John Byrne at the height of their powers. Over four decades of publishing history, this Editions Lug character has kept remarkable company, sharing adventures with the likes of Spider-Man, Peter Parker, Tyrone Johnson, and Tandy Bowen across titles including Titans and various Marvel Universe collections. With 15 catalog appearances spanning all the way to 2025, La Cape is a fascinating piece of Franco-Belgian Marvel history — the kind of character that rewards the curious collector willing to dig a little deeper into the rich, international tapestry of comics culture.
