Pan

Few comic characters can claim roots as deep as Pan, who stepped onto the page all the way back in 1907 — squarely in the Platinum Age, when the medium itself was still finding its footing. Debuting in Life magazine under the simple, enigmatic byline of "H," this figure carries the quiet mystique of comics' earliest era. What's remarkable is the sheer span of the catalog trail: from Life to the pulpy wonder of Mysteries of Unexplored Worlds and even the pages of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Pan's appearances stretch across roughly 85 years — a testament to a character with surprising staying power across wildly different comic landscapes.
