Prince Salander

A figure from the distinctive world of Marvel UK, Prince Salander made his entrance in 1985's Captain Britain #5, brought to life by the celebrated creative team of Jamie Delano and Alan Davis during the Bronze Age. His six catalogued appearances place him firmly in the orbit of Captain Britain and Brian Braddock, sharing pages with a cast that includes the wild-card Abslom Daak and the mysterious Agents Michael and Gabriel. He may be a rare presence in the broader Marvel cosmos, but for devotees of the rich, idiosyncratic corner of comics that Marvel UK carved out in the mid-eighties, Prince Salander is exactly the kind of discovery that makes digging through those issues so rewarding.
