Rive

Born into the wild, irreverent energy of Marvel's early '90s boom, Rive made their first mark in Deadpool: The Circle Chase #3 in 1993 — a debut crafted by the formidable team of Fabian Nicieza and a very young Joe Madureira, whose kinetic linework was already turning heads. It's a pedigree that places Rive right at the heart of one of Marvel's most creatively charged eras, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Deadpool, Makeshift, and Anastasia Summit across titles like Cable & Deadpool. With a publishing history that stretches remarkably from 1993 all the way to 2023, this is a character whose quiet persistence rewards the dedicated hunter of deep-cut Marvel lore — eleven appearances that feel like hidden gems waiting to be rediscovered by the right collector.
