Santiago Vargas

Santiago Vargas stepped onto the page in 2011's Batman, Inc. #3, born from the visionary collaboration of Grant Morrison, Yanick Paquette, and Pere Pérez during one of DC's most ambitious Modern Age storylines. This is a character who inhabits a rich, globe-spanning corner of the Batman universe, sharing panels with heavyweights like El Gaucho, Batwoman, Bruce Wayne, and The Knight. With appearances collected across Batman Incorporated and even the prestige Absolute edition, Vargas may have a compact footprint — just six catalog appearances — but every one of them lands in some of the most critically celebrated Batman comics of the decade. For collectors who love the international sweep of the Morrison era, he's a distinctive piece of that sprawling, unforgettable tapestry.
