Mary McGrill

Mary McGrill is a supporting character in Marvel's cult trucker-themed series U.S. 1, sharing the road with protagonist U.S. Archer and other colorful highway denizens in a comic that embraced the CB-radio and trucking culture craze of the early 1980s.

Mary McGrill rolled onto the scene in the pages of Marvel's offbeat U.S. 1 in 1983, a Bronze Age gem created by Al Milgrom and Herb Trimpe that leaned into the trucker culture craze of its era. She shares the highway with a colorful cast including U.S. Archer, Wide-Load Annie, and Poppa Wheelie, making for one of Marvel's more charmingly unconventional corners of that decade. With ten appearances concentrated in this cult favorite series, she's a compact but genuine piece of Bronze Age Marvel history — the kind of character that rewards the curious collector who digs past the marquee names.
