Who is Vartox?
A Bronze Age curiosity with genuine staying power, Vartox made his DC debut in 1983 and has kept remarkably eclectic company over the decades — sharing pages with the likes of Batman, Harley Quinn's world, and the offbeat corners of the DC universe that Dial H calls home. With 21 catalog appearances stretching across an impressive 42 years, this is a character who has quietly threaded through some of DC's most beloved and wonderfully weird titles. Whether you encounter him in the gritty atmosphere of Detective Comics or the anarchic fun of Harley Quinn and Power Girl, Vartox proves that the Bronze Age produced figures with a staying power that collectors and curious readers alike are still discovering today.
