Who is Wildchild?

A feral mutant with animal-like senses and savage instincts, Wildchild first appeared as a member of the Canadian government's super-team Alpha Flight. His uncontrollable berserker nature made him as dangerous to allies as to enemies.

Bursting onto the scene in John Byrne's landmark Alpha Flight #1 in 1983, Wildchild is a Bronze Age Marvel creation who has prowled the edges of Canada's superhero world for over four decades. A fixture across Alpha Flight, X-Factor, and Marvel Comics Presents, this feral figure keeps fierce company β€” sharing adventures with powerhouses like Sasquatch, Diamond Lil, and Walter Langkowski β€” which tells you everything about the rough-and-tumble corner of the Marvel Universe they call home. With a key issue to their name and a publishing history stretching all the way to 2025, Wildchild is a testament to the enduring appeal of Byrne's original Alpha Flight vision, a wild card well worth tracking down for any serious Marvel collector.
