Roky Vance

Roky Vance stepped onto the Marvel stage in 1988, born from the gritty creative partnership of Mike Baron and Whilce Portacio right in the thick of the Copper Age's darker, harder-edged storytelling. A figure orbiting the brutal world of The Punisher, Roky keeps some genuinely intense company — sharing pages with Frank Castle himself, the indispensable Microchip, and a cast of characters that defines one of Marvel's most uncompromising corners. Rare appearances make Roky a collector's curiosity worth hunting down in those early Baron-era issues.
