The Weapon-Master

A Bronze Age villain forged in the pages of DC's World's Finest Comics, The Weapon-Master debuted in 1981 courtesy of writer Cary Burkett and artist Rich Buckler — and immediately found themselves in rarefied company, sharing the page with the likes of Superman, Batman, Bruce Wayne, Green Arrow, and Hawkman. With one collector-recognized key issue among a compact but notable four appearances, this character made every panel count. Brief runs can carry real weight in the Bronze Age, and any antagonist who crosses paths with that caliber of DC heavyweight is absolutely worth a slot in your long boxes.
