Wendy Weedwacker

Wendy Weedwacker is a member of the Defenders of Dynatron City, a ragtag team of quirky, mutation-powered heroes from the city of Dynatron. The team and comic were based on a LucasArts video game, featuring oddball characters brought together to protect their eccentric hometown.

Bursting onto the scene in 1992 courtesy of creators Gary Winnick, Steve Purcell, and Frank Cirocco, Wendy Weedwacker is a wonderfully offbeat corner of Marvel's Copper/Modern Age landscape — a character whose very name promises something delightfully unconventional. She calls Defenders of Dynatron City home, a series that surrounds her with an irresistibly quirky cast including Radium Dog, Jet Headstrong, Buzzsaw Girl, and Toolbox. With only six catalog appearances, she's a genuine rarity — the kind of find that makes digging through longboxes so rewarding for collectors with a taste for the weird and wonderful.
