Saburo Kimata

Debuting in Erik Larsen's The Savage Dragon #3 back in 1992, Saburo Kimata is a fixture of Image Comics' bold early days — a Copper/Modern Age creation who has quietly persisted across an impressive thirty-year stretch of the publisher's history. With appearances spread across The Savage Dragon and Cyberforce, Kimata moves through one of comics' most colorful shared universes, keeping company with the likes of Mighty Man, Lt. Frank Darling, and David Gorelick. Seven catalog appearances may sound modest, but one of them carries genuine key-issue weight — and for the dedicated Image completist or Savage Dragon devotee, that's more than enough reason to hunt him down.
