Merriwether Locklin

Emerging from the Bronze Age Marvel universe in 1984, Merriwether Locklin made their debut in the pages of Rom — one of Marvel's most beloved cosmic-tinged series of the era — courtesy of the legendary creative team of Bill Mantlo and Sal Buscema. With appearances spanning Fantastic Four and Rom Annual alongside such luminaries as Rom, Rick Jones, Starshine, Brandy Clark, and Captain Marvel, this character clearly moved in remarkable company across the Marvel landscape. Thirteen catalog appearances stretched across an impressive arc from 1984 all the way to 2026 speak to a quiet staying power that rewards the dedicated reader willing to dig into the corners of the Bronze Age Marvel cosmos.
