Samantha Dunbar

A Modern Age Marvel creation, Samantha Dunbar stepped onto the scene in Fantastic Four #25 (2000), brought to life by the legendary team of Chris Claremont and Salvador Larroca. Her small but notable footprint across titles like Fantastic Four, Spider-Woman, and even the All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z — that coveted sign of canonical recognition — speaks to a character who left enough of an impression to be worth cataloguing. She keeps remarkable company, sharing pages with the likes of Johnny Storm, Lancer, Shakti, and Divinity, placing her squarely in an exciting corner of the Marvel universe. With only five recorded appearances, she's a genuine deep-cut discovery for the dedicated collector who loves unearthing the hidden gems of the early 2000s Marvel landscape.
