Mercury

A minor but memorable figure from the mid-nineties DC universe, Mercury made their debut in 1995's Guy Gardner: Warrior #29, brought to life by the creative team of Beau Smith, Phil Jimenez, and Brad Gorby. Emerging in the thick of the Copper/Modern Age, this character inhabits a corner of DC where gritty superhero action meets colorful ensemble storytelling, sharing pages with the likes of Lead, Jimmy Olsen, and Redmond Wilde across both Guy Gardner: Warrior and Superman. With only a handful of catalog appearances, Mercury is a true deep-cut discovery — the kind of character that rewards the dedicated fan who loves unearthing the hidden layers of nineties DC.
