Lamar Plotnick

Lamar Plotnick may not be a household name, but this Marvel supporting player has quietly persisted in the catalog since his 1988 Copper Age debut in Strange Tales, brought to life by creators Terry Austin and Dan Lawlis. His corner of the Marvel universe is a notably atmospheric one — he shares pages with Cloak, Dagger, Tandy Bowen, and Tyrone Johnson, keeping company with some of the publisher's most visually striking street-level characters. With appearances spanning all the way to 2021 and a place in the Cloak and Dagger Omnibus, Lamar is the kind of recurring figure who rewards readers digging deep into that world's rich supporting cast.
