Éon
Born from the Bronze Age imagination of the legendary duo Chris Claremont and John Byrne, Éon made their debut in the pages of Spécial Strange #23 in 1981 — a French-market publication from Semic S.A. that brought Marvel's cosmic and mutant worlds to Francophone readers. With appearances across Captain Marvel - La vie de Captain Marvel, Spécial Strange, and Strange, this rare figure shares the page with some of the era's most iconic names: Captain Marvel, Mar-Vell, Ororo Munroe, Kurt Wagner, and Scott Summers — extraordinary company by any measure. The catalog may be slim at three appearances, but one of them carries the weight of a recognized key issue, making Éon a genuinely intriguing find for the dedicated collector hunting the corners of Bronze Age French comics history. A character this scarce, born of creators this celebrated, is exactly the kind of discovery that reminds you why digging through international runs is always worth it.
