Lin Lie

Lin Lie is a young Chinese man who discovers the legendary Sword of Fu Xi, an ancient blade rooted in Chinese mythology. Wielding it thrusts him into the Marvel Universe as Sword Master, a hero connecting ancient Eastern legend with modern superheroics.

Bursting onto the scene in 2019's Agents of Atlas #2, Lin Lie is a Modern Age Marvel creation from the acclaimed team of Greg Pak, Nico Leon, and Pop Mhan — a fresh voice in a publisher universe rich with legacy. In the years since his debut, he's carved out a presence across an impressive range of titles, from Avengers to The End 2099 to the wonderfully offbeat Alligator Loki, signaling a character with real versatility and staying power. He keeps genuinely elite company, sharing pages with the likes of Iron Fist, Spider-Man, Captain America, Logan, and Miles Morales — the kind of roster that tells you Marvel has big things in mind for him. Still building his legacy but already running with legends, Lin Lie is exactly the sort of Modern Age discovery that rewards readers who get in early.
