Toro

Debuting in 1986's Titans #87 under the hands of Randy Stradley and Bob McLeod, Toro is a Copper Age creation published by Editions Lug whose catalog footprint stretches across an impressive 32 years. This is a character whose adventures place them in remarkable company — sharing pages with the likes of Vision, Captain America, Thor, and Thomas Raymond — suggesting a world steeped in Marvel's rich superhero tapestry as filtered through French-language publishing. Appearing most prominently in Titans and the beloved Marvel Comics - La collection and Le meilleur des super-héros Marvel series, Toro represents a fascinating slice of Marvel's European publishing history, the kind of discovery that reminds collectors just how wide and wonderful the comics world truly is.
