Reid Randall

Reid Randall is the alter ego of Knight Watchman, a Batman-homage vigilante featured in Big Bang Comics, a series celebrating classic superhero traditions. Operating in a world of Silver Age-style heroes, he serves as one of the title's central costumed crimefighters.

Reid Randall made their entrance in 1994's Big Bang Comics #1 — a debut that launched one of Image Comics' most affectionate love letters to the superhero genre's classic traditions. A Modern Age creation by Tom King, Reid has proven genuinely durable, racking up 76 catalog appearances across Big Bang Comics, Big Bang Adventures, and Knight Watchman over three decades, with two of those issues earning key-issue recognition from collectors. The company Reid keeps is colorful and telling — sharing pages with the likes of Ultiman, The Blitz, and The Beacon — and the breadth of series they inhabit speaks to a character woven deep into the fabric of this corner of the Image universe. If you love comics that celebrate comics, Reid Randall is exactly the kind of figure worth tracking down.
