Sonny Ling

Sonny Ling made their entrance in the pages of Stealth Force #1 in 1987, a Copper Age debut from Malibu Comics crafted by creators Mike Valerio and Patrick Olliffe. Part of a tight-knit cast that includes the likes of John Lujack, Hannah Bashevis, and Nikolai Androvich, Sonny inhabits the kind of high-stakes, ensemble-driven world that made Malibu an exciting alternative voice in late-'80s comics. The Stealth Force run may be compact, but for collectors with a taste for the era's independent spirit and a fondness for uncovering hidden gems, Sonny Ling is exactly the sort of character who rewards a deeper dig.
