Roman

Roman emerged from the wild, creator-owned energy of early Image Comics in 1993, debuting in Brigade #3 courtesy of Rob Liefeld, Eric Stephenson, and Marat Mychaels — right at the heart of that bold, boundary-pushing Copper/Modern Age moment when Image was rewriting the rules of superhero comics. Over a decade of publication, Roman carved out a presence across some of Image's most distinctive titles — Brigade, Glory, and Prophet — sharing pages with heavy-hitters like Supreme, Glory, and Troll, which speaks to a character woven into the fabric of that interconnected Image universe. With 52 catalogued appearances and two collector-recognized key issues to their name, Roman is exactly the kind of deep-cut character that rewards the dedicated fan willing to dig into one of comics' most energetic and underappreciated eras. If you love early Image and want to trace the threads that tie it all together, Roman is a name worth knowing.
