Michael Badilino

Born into the darker corners of Marvel's early '90s supernatural scene, Michael Badilino made his debut in 1993's Hokum & Hex #3 — a Copper/Modern Age creation by Rick Parker who has quietly carved out a meaningful niche across three decades of Marvel storytelling. His catalog of appearances spans titles like Spirits of Vengeance, Venom: Nights of Vengeance, and Marvel Comics Presents, placing him firmly in the company of heavy hitters like Ghost Rider, Vengeance, War Machine, and Jim Rhodes. With 45 appearances stretching all the way to 2025, Badilino is one of those rewarding deep-cut characters who rewards the dedicated collector willing to dig into Marvel's rich supernatural and action corners. If you love the gritty, high-octane energy that defined Marvel's early modern era, this is a name worth tracking down.
