Vikhor

Emerging from the pages of DC's Firestorm the Nuclear Man in 1988, Vikhor is a Copper Age creation from the sharp collaborative pen of John Ostrander and J. J. Birch — a duo who knew how to populate a story with genuinely dangerous company. With only a handful of catalog appearances, Vikhor is a rare and intriguing find, the kind of deep-cut character who keeps fascinatingly intense company: sharing pages with the formidable Stalnoivolk, the Steel Wolf, the mysterious Rusalka, the thunderous Perun, and other memorable figures from that corner of the DC universe. For collectors who love hunting the edges of the Copper Age and savoring the richly textured Cold War flavor that defined Firestorm's later run, Vikhor is exactly the sort of obscure gem that rewards the dig.
