Meteorite

Meteorite crashed onto the scene in the pages of Captain America #343 in 1988, a product of the Copper Age's bold creative energy courtesy of the legendary Mark Gruenwald and artist Kieron Dwyer. This Marvel character carved out a niche in the world of Captain America, sharing those action-packed pages with the likes of Occult, Crucible, and the Star-Spangled Avenger himself. With only a handful of catalog appearances across a run stretching into the early '90s, Meteorite is precisely the kind of rare, deep-cut find that makes digging through back issues such a thrill — a fleeting but genuine piece of Marvel history worth tracking down.
