Vic Darge

Vic Darge stepped onto the DC stage in 2002, born from the creative partnership of John Arcudi and Tan Eng Huat in the pages of Doom Patrol — one of comics' most gloriously strange corners of the DC universe. A Modern Age figure with a modest but intriguing footprint, Darge keeps genuinely remarkable company, sharing pages with the likes of Green Lantern, The Flash, and the eerie presence of a Robotman doppelgänger. With appearances spanning all the way to 2018 and turns in landmark collections like JLA/JSA: Virtue and Vice and Geoff Johns' celebrated JSA run, this is a character whose small appearance count belies some very big stages — a hidden gem for the dedicated DC completist.
