Mark Jackson

A quiet corner of Marvel's Bronze Age belongs to Mark Jackson, who stepped onto the page in 1973's Fear #12 under the inventive hands of Steve Gerber and Jim Starlin — a creative pairing that guaranteed the book would be anything but ordinary. Jackson's world is a murky, atmospheric one, sharing those swampy, unsettling pages with the muck-encrusted Man-Thing, Ted Sallis, and Ellen Brandt. Rare in the catalog but spanning an impressive stretch of Marvel history across Fear, Man-Thing, and Book of the Dead, he's a Bronze Age artifact worth hunting down for fans who love their Marvel strange and shadowy.
