Raven Darkhölme
Raven Darkhölme made their comics debut in the pages of Strange #161 in 1983, a Bronze Age introduction brought to life by the creative team of Bill Mantlo and Sal Buscema under the French publisher Editions Lug. With 29 catalogued appearances spanning an impressive four decades across Spécial Strange, Titans, and Strange, this is a character with genuine staying power in the Franco-Belgian comics landscape. Three of those appearances carry key-issue status — a mark of real collector significance — and the company Raven Darkhölme keeps is nothing short of remarkable, sharing pages with luminaries like Mystique, Ororo Munroe, Logan, and Spider-Man. For fans who love digging into the rich international history of comics publishing, this is exactly the kind of enduring figure worth tracking down.
