Who is Turbo?

Michiko 'Mickey' Musashi became Turbo after coming into possession of a powerful alien battlesuit that grants its wearer superhuman speed and flight. She joined the New Warriors and later took on a leadership role with the Loners support group for former teen heroes.

Turbo made their Marvel debut in the pages of Marvel Swimsuit Special #2 in 1993, courtesy of creator Manny Galan, arriving right at the dawn of the Modern Age with a splash. With 33 catalog appearances spanning an impressive three decades through 2024, this is a character with real staying power in the Marvel Universe, showing up most prominently in New Warriors alongside a dynamic roster that includes Spider-Man, Speedball, and Angelica Jones. Collectors take note: one of those appearances carries key-issue status, making Turbo a rewarding find for anyone digging through back-issue bins with an eye for hidden gems.
