Martha Griswald

A brief but memorable face from the pages of Excalibur, Martha Griswald made her mark in 1989 when Chris Claremont and Alan Davis were crafting some of Marvel's most imaginative Copper Age adventures. She shares those pages with a remarkable cast — including Meggan, Kurt Wagner, and the enigmatic Widget — which tells you something about the wild, dimension-hopping world she inhabits. With only a handful of appearances to her name, Martha is one of those quietly compelling supporting characters who gives the Excalibur universe its sense of a lived-in, fully realized world beyond the headline heroes. A small role, perhaps, but in a series this beloved, every face counts.
