Ryan Kendall

Ryan Kendall is the second Black Condor, a DC hero gifted with natural flight and psychokinetic powers. Raised amid dark circumstances that awakened his abilities, he eventually took up the Black Condor mantle and allied with heroes including the Freedom Fighters.

Ryan Kendall stepped onto the DC stage in 1992, introduced in the pages of Who's Who in the DC Universe Update 1993 by Bob Kahan — a Copper/Modern Age entry into one of comics' richest mythologies. Over a span of roughly 24 years, this DC figure carved out a niche presence, appearing most notably in Starman, DC Universe: Legacies, and the landmark Identity Crisis, rubbing shoulders along the way with luminaries like Green Lantern, The Flash, Black Condor, Phantom Lady, and Starman himself. With 22 catalog appearances spread across nearly a quarter century, Ryan Kendall is exactly the kind of deep-cut character that rewards the curious collector — a figure woven quietly but persistently into the fabric of the DC Universe, waiting to be discovered.
